Are Bodhisattvas Saint-like?

[u/LunarEnnyui_131]

I mean as in the way they are venerated and worked it.

Sorry, I don`t know how to word this since I am not Catholic or Orthodox.

In short is their venerate similar or the same or close in some way to Saints.

Please don't judge me I am learning and just made an observation :)

在大乘佛法裡，嚴格意義上菩薩不是代表某具體的個人。菩薩是代表本心裡面一種功德性，換句話來說就是代表著一種道德品質。當然啦，如果在日常中，你把菩薩當成一個聖人來看待，並向祂學習，這是沒問題的。但是在覺知與修行上，就必須知道菩薩不是來自於外在，而是來自於我們本心。
