MCK recently use a analogy of 'zi4 xing1'(or
Buddhanature/Luminosity/Thusness etc). It itself is without
defilments, attachment, dualism, wandering thoughts. it's like the
great sun. When we are deluded, our affliction/defilements covered
it up and not the other way around. like if we have a cloudy
weather, the sun is blocked. but the sun is always there. Can the
cloud really block the sun? how could the small little cloud or
earth block the great big sun. Sun is alot bigger. We should say
that the cloud blocked our vision. :8
hence delusion is from our side.
