Trikāya

Nirmanakaya Buddha is when Shakyamuni Buddha helps people, providing various teachings, like a doctor who makes prescriptions. Sambhogakaya Buddha is the rewarded body who attained buddhahood through his practice. Dharmakaya Buddha is the Buddha as truth. —Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-01-11B - as found on shunryusuzuki.com edited by PF. Go to instagram.com/cuke_archives or cuke.com/ig for links to the full Shunryu Suzuki lecture and the source of the photo.
