Panchen Lobsang Yeshe
“Just as suffering torments oneself, likewise does suffering torment all sentient beings. All sentient beings tormented by suffering are exclusively one’s benevolent mothers. Not even one has not performed the deed of becoming [our] mother, [while] those who have become [our] mothers are innumerable. Each one when having become [our] mother protected [us] with a similar kindness with which this life’s mother protected us, [hence], one will think: ‘Since they protected me kindly, their kindness is extremely great!'”
