Dalai Lama Quote of the Week
The five subtler aggregates* will eventually be transformed into the Buddhas of the five lineages. They are now as if accompanied by mental defilements. When the defilements are removed, these factors do not become any coarser or subtler; their nature remains, but [when they] become separated from the faults of mental pollution, they become the Buddhas of the five lineages. So if you ask whether the Buddhas of the five lineages are present now in our continuums, these factors are currently bound by faults, and since there cannot be a Buddha who has a fault, they are not Buddhas. One is not yet fully enlightened, but that which is going to become a Buddha is present; therefore, these factors presently existent in our continuums are Buddha seeds and are called the Buddha nature, or the essence of the One Gone Thus (Tathagatagarbha).
* The five consituents that are included within a person's continuum--earth, water, fire, wind, and space--that will be purified into the five Buddha lineages [the exalted manifestations of these constituents].
--from Kindness, Clarity, and Insight by The Fourteenth Dalai Lama, His Holiness Tenzin Gyatso, translated and edited by Jeffrey Hopkins co-edited by Elizabeth Napper, published by Snow Lion Publications
