The Bodhisattva takes a vow to help others and tries to
alleviate their suffering. He becomes a Teacher.

In order to help those who feel there is no justice in the world,
the Teachers have taught the Law of Karma.

In order to help those who feel that this one life is too short,
the Teachers have taught the Law of Reincarnation.

In order to help those who feel there is no meaning to life,
the Teachers have taught the Law of Evolution.

In order to help those who feel isolated, estranged, or disconnected,
the Teachers have taught the Law of Cycles.

In order to help those who feel there is nothing but matter in the world,
the Teachers have taught the existence of Cosmic Planes.

In order to help those who feel there is no permanence to life,
the Teachers have taught the Doctrine of Monads.

In order to help those who feel there is no God,
the Teachers have taught the existence of Beness.

In order to help those who feel there is no escape from suffering,
the Teachers have taught the existence of the Absolute.

and so it goes...
