Tell me how many afflictions are there? They are infinite. How do we end them? It’s simple: a tranquil mind can sever afflictions; a tranquil mind can benefit sentient beings. “Sentient beings are boundless, I vow to liberate them all”—with a tranquil mind, you can liberate countless beings. The methods of the Dharma are inseparable from the mind; as long as your mind is at peace, it is as if you have cultivated infinite approaches to the Dharma.
