Every being inherits such a buddha-nature and qualities. But our nature and qualities have temporarily been covered by our own nightmare-like transitory delusions rooted in the tightness of the grip of grasping of our own dualistic minds. Such dualistic concepts have produced chains of afflicting emotions, stirred up turbulent karmic conflicts, and forced us to endure reckless seesaws of misery. Thereby, most of us have lost even the clue of having this utmost peaceful, joyful, and enlightened nature of ours. But the darkness-like confusions and miseries caused by grasping at mental objects with the force of emotional flames are impermanent and transitory. They will never last and will vanish at the touch of the sunrays-like light of wisdom. Source:
