"Only those who have developed the Bodhichitta in themselves and who have renounced all nirvanic happiness for the love of humanity can qualify themselves as Bodhisattvas. The Alchemist who does not sacrifice himself for humanity can never become a Bodhisattva. Only the Bodhisattvas with compassionate hearts who have given their life for humanity can incarnate the Intimate Christ. We must make a complete differentiation between the Sravakas and Buddhas Pratyekas on one side and the Bodhisattvas on the other. The Sravakas and Buddhas Pratyekas only preoccupy themselves with their particular perfection without caring a bit for this wretched suffering humanity. Obviously, the Buddhas Pratyekas and Sravakas can never incarnate Christ. Only the Bodhisattvas who sacrifice themselves for humanity can incarnate Christ. The sacred title of Bodhisattva is legitimately attained only by those who have renounced to all Nirvanic happiness for the love of suffering humanity. Obviously, before the Bodhisattva is born the Bodhichitta must be formed within ourselves. Furthermore, it is important to clarify the necessity of disintegrating the ego, the "I", in order for the Bodhichitta to emerge. The Bodhichitta is formed with the merits of love and supreme sacrifice for our fellow men. The Bodhisattva is formed within the environment and psychological atmosphere of the Bodhichitta. We must not make the mistake of mistaking the Bodhichitta with the Bodhisattva. The Bodhichitta is the awakened and developed superlative consciousness of the Being. The Bodhichitta emerges in the aspirant who sacrifices himself for his fellow men long before the mercurial bodies have been created."

It is important to clarify here different aspects by utilizing now the Tree of Life, so we invite you to utilize the tool that we have in Kabbalah, which is, the Tree of Life. Since we are going to point at the Tree of Life during the course of this disquisition in order for you to understand.
