The unenlightened person
does not understand his own true nature,
does not realize the Pure Land in his own body,
and thus petitions all over. The enlightened person
never differs no matter where he is. For this reason
the Buddha says, “Wherever I may be I am always
in comfort and bliss…If only your mind is pure,
your own nature is itself the Pure
Land of the West.”
Deluded a buddha is a being
Enlightened a being is a buddha
A foolish buddha is a being
A wise being is a buddha
A biased buddha is a being
An unbiased being is a buddha
As long as your mind is biased
The buddha dwells in a being
The moment you wake up unbiased
A being becomes a buddha
Your buddha is the real one
If you didn’t have the buddha-mind
Where would you go to find a buddha?
