buddha nature

As a child I had Buddha nature. All children have Buddha nature. Dogs have Buddha nature--they live in the now, children live in The Now. One day the division bell rings and we get separated from our Buddha nature, our inner spirit. Our brain makes distinctions--this is this and that is that and we lose the best part of ourselves. This is the expulsion from eden--- the loss of innocence... we become aware of ourselves...Picasso said he could draw like raphael at 15 (an exaggeration FYI) but he spent his whole life trying to learn again to draw like a child--by this he meant get back into the spirit of the child--Buddha nature. A corrupt spirit cannot re-enter buddha nature anymore than a camel can pass through a needles eye. What good are riches without a soul. Never sell your soul, dont rent your soul and dont ever compromise your soul. The only thing you have is your soul, all else is ephemeral and an illusion as well.
