The Intentions

bsam pa bzang na sa dang lam yang bzang/ /
bsam pa ngan na sa dang lam yang ngan/ /
thams cad bsam pa dag la rag las pas/ /
rtag par bsam pa bzang la ‘bad par bya/ /

If the intentions are good, then so will be the levels and paths.
If the intentions are bad, then the levels and paths will be too.
Since everything depends on one’s intentions,
Always strive to make sure that they are positive.

~ Je Tsongkhapa, A Literary Gem of Poetry ~
