What is the Bodhisatta code of conduct?
什么是菩萨行？

The Bodhisatta code of conduct is to take the deliverance of all living beings as one's own responsibility, so, generally speaking, it is to learn the way of the Buddha above, and to convert all beings below. The practitioners of the Bodhisatta Code are required not only to vow their willingness to save all living beings, but also to see through and realize the impermanence and egolessness of everything in the world, to see that the whole world, particularly the history of human society, is an ever-flowing, changing and developing current without end. Nobody can stop or control this swift current in its torrential advance. Bodhisattas are aware that nothing can be done while drifting along this torrential tide of impermanent changes, but to do no evils, uphold all good, glorify the land and benefit sentient beings. Only thus can one take one's own destiny in hand, liberating oneself as well as others without being drowned in the ever-changing current of life and death, and finally leave the ocean of boundless suffering by the boat of Bodhisatta's Six Perfections (cha pāramitā). The Avatamsaka-sūtra reads that the Bodhisattas "compare all living beings to the root of a tree, all Buddhas and Bodhisattas to its flowers and fruits, they benefit all beings with the water of compassion (Karunā), and thus they attain the flowers and fruits of wisdom as Buddhas and Bodhisattas". It adds, "therefore, Bodhisattas belong among living beings, and without the latter all Bodhisattas would be unable to attain perfect Enlightenment (anuttara sammā-sambodhi)." So, only through benefit to others can one benefit oneself. This is the Bodhisatta's goal, in a dialectical point of view, of delivering all living beings for the sake of self-deliverance. This is also the concrete practice of the Buddhist world outlook of impermanence (anicca) and life outlook of the Bodhisatta code. This is the theoretical basis for Popular Buddhism.
菩萨行总的来说是上求佛道，下化众生，是以救度众生为己任的。修学菩萨行的人不仅要发愿救度一切众生，还要观察、认识世间一切都是无常无我的，要认识到整个世间，主要是人类社会的历史，是种不断发生发展、无常变化、无尽无休的洪流。这种迅猛前进的滚滚洪流谁也阻挡不了，谁也把握不住。菩萨觉悟到，在这种无常变化的汹涌波涛中顺流而下没有别的可做，只有诸恶莫作，众善奉行，庄严国土，利乐有情，这样才能把握自己，自度度人，不被无常变幻的生死洪流所淹没，依靠菩萨六波罗蜜的航船，出离这种无尽无边的苦海。 《华严经》说，菩萨以“一切众生而为树根，诸佛菩萨而为花果，以大悲水饶益众生，则能成就诸佛菩萨智慧花果”。又说，“是故菩提属于众生，若无众生一切菩萨终不能成无上正觉。”所以，只有利他才能自利，这就是菩萨以救度众生为自救的辩证目的，这就是佛教无常观的世界观和菩萨行的人生观的具体实践，这也是人间佛教的理论基础。
