Our persons are Buddha

"Our eyes, which have the faculty of seeing; our ears, whihc have the faculty of hearing; our other senses-smell, taste, touch-are all manisfestations of the power of knowing. So our sense organs are the eyes of Buddha. Every one of us is Buddha. However, Mr. So-and-so is not Buddha, but our "persons" are Buddha."
