Fa Hai said," Master, what teaching are you leaving to enable confused people of the later generations to see the buddha-nature?"
The Great Master, " Our minds inherently have b
uddha in them; your own inner buddha is the real buddha. If there were no buddha-mind, where would we look for the real buddha? Your own mind is buddha. Do not doubt anymore. There is nothing external that can establish anything - it is all the original mind conceiving all sorts of things. That is why scripture says,' When the mind is aroused, all sorts of arise; when the mind is quiescent, all sorts of phenomena pass away.' "
