So “nature” or “outlook of things” are two names of one thing, one reality. Sometimes we say buddha-nature. Sometimes we say enlightenment or bodhi or buddha or attainment. But those are two sides of one reality. So, not only do we call it from those two sides, but also we call it, sometimes, “evil desire.”
