“Śākya Chogden speaks of a conditioned and an unconditioned as well as a seeming and an ultimate tathāgatagarbha. He holds that even the ultimate tathāgata heart is impermanent because it is a functional entity, which is ceasing moment by moment. On the other hand, he says, this does not contradict its being explained as permanent in other contexts, when having in mind the permanence in terms of continuity.” - Karl Brunnhölzl | “Śākya Chogden speaks of a conditioned and an unconditioned as well as a seeming and an ultimate tathāgatagarbha.

The purpose of the buddha-nature website is to provide a resource hub for trustworthy information for learning about and teaching the concept of buddha-nature, its associated texts, teachings, lineages, and relevant Buddhist ideas. Unique content will be shared here, but the site will primarily act as a broker for other projects and authors that have already created quality materials, which we will curate for a wide range of audiences.
