In ‘Cairo’ by G. Willow Wilson & M.K. Perker:
Asaad: How much is too much to sacrifice? For someone you love?…
Yanni: I think there aren’t any sacrifices. There are only choices. I think if you give something up for someone, it won’t feel like a sacrifice. It’ll feel like the right thing to do.
‘Bodhisattvas don’t sacrifice for any being,*
even when we feel that they sacrifice for all.’
‘The best sacrifice sacrifices
the notion of sacrifice.’**
– Stonepeace
* Because they are neither fixated on the notion of sacrifice,
nor the notion they there are any sacrificers, the sacrificed or ones sacrificed for.
** To sacrifice the notion of sacrifice is to sacrifice
the fundamental delusion that there are ‘selves’ within or without.
