    The main thing about the Diamond Sutra is to develop the great heart of all sentient beings. In Sanskrit, Buddha means enlightened one. Hinayana takes self-realization as the ultimate, while Mahayana bodhisattvas not only have to be self-conscious, but also "enlighten others", so their ultimate goal is to achieve the vast realm of Buddhahood with all sentient beings.

    According to the theory of dependent origination, which is the philosophical foundation of Buddhism, there is no such thing as an absolutely unchanging entity (self-nature) in everything that is formed as a result of conditional relations.

    Therefore, with the wisdom of emptiness, we should break down the artificial distinction between "me", "sentient beings", and "Buddhas". Therefore, we should do our best to help sentient beings, but we should not be attached to the merits of "me" in helping sentient beings. Only those who have a large amount of idealism can have a big pattern and achieve a great cause.
