Your Buddha-Nature

Buddha-nature is the teaching that all people are fundamentally good. We have no "original sin" or any sort of imperfection that we need to get rid of or somehow transform. All the bad stuff is actually just an illusion, a mistake of the mind that causes all sorts of trouble. None of that is actually us—our true nature is pure and naturally vibrant, separate from all negativity.

What Then?

Everyone has the same buddha-nature, even the Buddha. The only difference is that the Buddha recognized his and the rest of us do not. The goal of Buddhist practice is to allow our true nature to shine forth. Since we're already perfect buddhas covered in the muck of ignorance, our task is simply to remove that muck. Ignorance, however, is not easily shrugged off. The Buddhist teachings and practices are all dedicated to retraining the mind and body, both by cultivating the proper outlook and behavior, and by stopping the negative thinking that causes dissatisfaction and suffering.

  • What is the history of buddha-nature teachings?
