Buddha Quote
Friday April 10, 2026
ImaginationWe don't always need the real thing to experience what is close
to the real thing if we use our imagination constructively. We
might not be able to have the Buddha or Bodhisattvas live in the
flesh before us teaching us, giving us advice right now. But if
we want to experience what is closest to the real thing, but we
can imagine. Imagine the Buddha is here, and listen to Him
sincerely. Isn't it good enough? Do we have to absolutely need
Him to tell us anything in person? Or are we just attached to Him
emotionally? Are there many of us Buddhists out there who are
greedy for a miracle where He appears before our very eyes? The
Buddha was here, He taught us all we needed to know. That is a
complete "miracle" already. The rest is up to us. Don't keep
needing inspiration-become inspired, inspire yourself, use your
imagination.
