The Bodhisattva path (aiming for ascension to become a Buddha) is one of the most pain-staking type of livelihoods.
.
Should one never have been a spider, one shall be (for several hundred lifetimes).
Should one never have been a schizophrenic, one shall be (for several hundred lifetimes).
Should one never have been a ghost, one shall be (for several hundred lifetimes)
One needs to become all things, to EXPERIENCE this Thought, Memory & Feeling Casino thoroughly, until no more learning – if one wishes to become a teacher to all beings.
.
The karma involved are absolutely precise, and one MUST make the required mistakes to ascend into heaven, hell, angel, animal, ghost, humans, etc… each realm containing enormous sub-categories. Numerous levels of heaven, many types of humans, indefinite traits of hell beings, etc…
.
People take this path without proper wisdom or advice and do not realise its consequences until too late.
.
One should consequently investigate whether the Buddha really meant for his disciples to become him… since where there exists “suffering” there will be a Buddha.
Therefore the task of Buddhahood need not fall into all hands.
