MahaPariNirvana Part 47. Shakyamuni digs into the difference of potential and the expression of potential.

Chapter 11 takes the Four Inversions and dives into the Saha expression of the Tathagata Field in the experience of the Buddha Mind. That the two are one and not two. And the inversions are the result of misunderstanding the one as two.

CRITICISM. Attitude. Intent. Criticism is about actions; what actions are doing, what actions can be taken, what is the goal of our actions? We must use our Buddhist Bodhisattva training.

Attitude. Intent. Shakyamuni’s words resonate through Nichiren. Our practice is our guide, “...follow the Law, not the Person”, allowing no others in thought word or deed to impede our sharing and practice of the Mahayana and our praise for all those who seek the path of the Lotus.

We close with the final realization from Kashyapa that language belongs to the domain of expedient devices and stories within the realm of name and form and Samsara, while experience and potential are without limit and unbound in “time”.
