#platform/youtube #channel/Master-YongHua #playlist/dharma-seeds  the Buddhist quintessential concept, that is originally your mind is already enlightened. And over time, because of bad circumstances, that you give rise to more and more confused thoughts, layer upon layers upon layers, one lifetime, and then many lifetime, limitless lifetime on top of that. So, you see you have countless layers upon layers of confusion. So, that's why, as we are where we are today, we cannot recognize our original mind anymore. And this is the human tragedy. We cannot help ourselves. We are buried so deep. There's so many layers of false thinking, so many layers of confusion, that we are overwhelmed. Life is more and more overwhelming, isn't it? We become more and more confused. And unless we do something about it, we get further and further away from our original mind, our originally enlightened nature. We possess this this wonderful treasure called the enlightened mind, that we don't know how to get back to. It's not stolen. We own it. It's part of us. And and yet, we cannot find our way back there.
