A Fable Based on Ancient Saying of Dharmakitri
In 1011 CE, Atisha and more than 100 disciples, visited Srivijaya ( in now Indonesia) and became disciples of Dharmakirti, known in Tibet as Serlingpa Gser-gling-pa (which means Master from Suvarnadvipa/ now Sumatera), to receive teachings on Bodhicitta or Pure Awareness.
Serlingpa said, "Planting the seed of bodhichitta does not grow well if the soil is too clean. It grows much better in soil that is dirty and fertilized."
Inspired by this saying, An Authspot writer presents Fable of Seed on Dirty Soil.
