Being a Bodhisattva is the only way of saving others.
But it is also the only way to save ourselves.
For, without entering the way of the Bodhisattva,
life is nothing but a barrel of crude violence
where war is raging : a battlefield, a quest for defense
An expansion of our delusive identities.

That word again. « Save ».
The only way to develop, in any meaningful sense, is to stand apart from trivialising emotional attachments.
Off the top of my head, but it will do for now.
