The mantra of mantra

Spirituality

Rely on the teaching, not on the person;Rely on the meaning, not on the words;Rely on the definitive meaning, not on the provisional;Rely on your wisdom mind, not on your ordinary mind. The Buddha

Living the life

Enlightened one

A Buddha is a person who has developed all positive qualities and eliminated all negative qualities. A Buddha was an "ordinary" human like you and me before he/she became enlightened. Enlightenment is compared to awakening, as a person suddenly expereinces a complete transformation of body and mind from sleeping to waking up. One could say that a Buddha represents the very peak of evolution, as he/she is omniscient or all-knowing.
