We Are Inherently Divine

We are inherently divine – we just need a nudge in the right direction.

The ‘just a nudge’ part is important, to understand the nub, the central point that holds everything together. Instead, we seek full-blown explanations that only satisfy our intellectual curiosity as we say, “Done that!” and move onto the next teaching, when all we actually needed was a nudge in the right direction to give us confidence.

This is how we feel our way.
Those who acquire all the explanations
are practically useless.

The Buddha’s truth was to acknowledge suffering, not merely to know about it in a theoretical sense but to experience it. Only then can empathetic compassion be known. Likewise, we have to experience annoyance to seek its cause, rather than just being told, “Don’t get annoyed.”

Why do we engage on this journey? It is the inherent divinity within us all which seeks to remember what we are. For some it’s buried deep, while for others, it cannot help but surface.

Clarity means divine splendour; the realisation that we all have an enlightened nature.
