Life is practicesteemCreated with Sketch.

We all innately have the seed of buddhahood within us. That is our true nature. Our true nature is good - totally good. And in the end, that has to triumph. But it is taking a long time. Of course, in terms of eternity, this is nothing. Historical time is just a finger snap.

But that's is why, from our side, we have to make the effort, because if we don't make the effort, we tend to slide downwards - at the very least into complacency - and we just try to be comfortable and to have a nice time. But that's not what this life is about. This life is really about developing spiritual muscles and doing something meaningful, not just outwardly, but inwardly. And that takes effort, because the pull of gravity is very strong. It pulls us downwards if we are not very careful. We have to be vigilant; we have to be alert. We cannot become complacent.
