I shall give financial and material aid to those in need, without falling into debt, going hungry, or adversely affecting dependents and my practise. I shall protect all those who fear from predators, robbers, attackers, weapons, poisons, illness, fire, water, precipices, and treacherous roads, up to and including the fear of the lower realms, without ever impairing moral discipline. I shall satisfy all sentient beings by sharing the pure Dharma. I shall ripen those who have not ripened, free those who have not been freed, and establish in Buddhahood those who have not been established, without any regard for wealth and fame.
