Born to be Buddha

I am confident that those born in a stable
are not the 'uncle of God' or whatever is the fashionable mythology . . .
I am also confident that awakening is open to the most lowly blinkered aristocrat
right up to the most afflicted ignoramus, the sun gods, shunned and z z z from all realms . . .

Each of us is inherently capable. Anything less is delusion.
Is right aspiration part of the eight fold path?

The Sufis have a wonderful saying, 'Increase in Love'
Is the Buddhist equivalent, 'Increase in Awareness' . . . :wave:

Have you like me in my arrogance, been born to Buddhahood?
. . . or are you just here for another ride?

  • Just here for the ride.
    I'm pretty arrogant though. Does that count?

    Monks always taught me that Buddhists did not insult other religions and their beliefs.
