How to Live Like a Buddha

Which of us can claim to live like a fully enlightened Buddha? None of us. We still imagine we're inhabited by an inherent, enduring, independent self-nature separate from everything else. With your spacious and appreciative mind, annoyance, and judgment are too small to cause any disturbance. For struggling sentient beings, even those who behave badly, you feel only compassion because you can see their Buddha nature. The term Bodhi is a Sanskrit and Pali term meaning awakened. Our Bodhi Mind then is our awakened mind. It is our already awakened mind.
