Buddha Nature is by birth nature for everyone. It is more good nature, not sinful nature. That
is our understanding of our nature. In its true sense it is not either
good nor bad, that is complete understanding. But, in its usual sense it is
more good nature rather than bad nature. -------------------------------- Excerpt from Shunryu Suzuki lecture - 68-06-29 as found on shunryusuzuki.com. Edited by DC
