## Resource

There are two kinds of bodhisattvas: those who have attained the stage of non-regression, and those who have only just generated bodhicitta. Only non-regressing bodhisattvas can safely remain in Samsara to liberate sentient beings without falling back. Other bodhisattvas and ordinary beings should first seek rebirth in Amitabha Buddha’s Pure Land. By attaining rebirth there, one can quickly realise non-regression and enlightenment, then return freely to countless worlds to help save sentient beings.
