See all beings with equanimity.  Those whom I've identified as friends, enemies and with indifference have not always been and will not always be ...

Since we have been born many, many times, they have all been my mothers,

Having been very kind to me.

Even when I've designated them as enemies they've been kind because they've helped me to cultivate patience.

Everyone has been so extraordinarily kind to me, I will repay their kindness.

So I will equalize myself and others, reflecting that just like myself, all beings want happiness and don't want suffering, and all beings have the equal right to happiness without any suffering.

Reflecting on the disadvantages of self-cherishing,

And the advantages of cherishing others.

So I will cherish others rather than cherishing myself,

And let harm come to myself rather than letting harm come to others.

I will cultivate compassion, the wish to take on others' suffering;

Lovingkindness, the wish to give everyone my happiness;

And great compassion, the intention to actually do this for all sentient beings.

And bodhicitta, the awakened mind of a Buddha.
