Understanding Buddha Nature

I think you are trying to figure out what is buddha-nature. Is that so? Because I do not explain what it is, but I just point it out: “This is buddha-nature.” But I didn't say what it is. That is buddha-nature, you know. Buddha-nature is impossible to understand in a psychological way or a philosophical way or a scientific way. You cannot understand in this way.
