To Take Refuge

DateThursday, November 29, 2007 at 7:43AM

"To take refuge in Buddha means to are refuge in what you really are. What you really are is already attained, always, every moment. What you really are is Buddha. You don't have to work at what you are. Part of what you are is what you think you are, but what you think you are is not all of what you are. It is just an aspect of what you are."

Tenshin Reb Anderson, Roshi
