Buddha nature

(skt.: tathagatagarbha; tib.: de shin shek pe nying po) The clear light nature of mind possessed by all sentient beings, which is the potential for all sentient beings to become enlightened by removing the two obscurations: the obscuration to liberation and the obscuration to omniscience.

Words of Wisdom

"You don't need to obsess over the attainment of future realizations. As long as you act in the present with as much understanding as you possibly can, you'll realize everlasting peace in no time at all."
- Lama Zopa Rinpoche
