seven points of cause and effect

One of two methods used in Tibetan Buddhism for developing bodhicitta.

The seven points are:

1) seeing all beings as your mother;
2) remembering the kindness of the mother;
3) wishing to repay the kindness;
4) love;
5) compassion;
6) special intention;
7) generating the mind of enlightenment.

The other method is equalizing and exchanging the self with others.
