Let's recognise and celebrate our own unique qualities... Each of us, with the inherent capacity to manifest our Buddha nature, can contribute to the wellbeing of society in our own personal way, without having to become like someone else. We are unique, we are incomparable, we are BUDDHAS!
"When one comes to realise and see that each thing - the cherry, the plum, the peach, the damson - in its own entity, without undergoing any change, possesses the eternally endowed three bodies, then this is what is meant by the word ryo, 'to include' or 'all-inclusive'."
