"Buddha compared our Buddha nature to a gold nugget in dirt, for no matter how disgusting a person’s delusions may be, the real nature of their mind remains undefiled, like pure gold. In the heart of even the cruelest and most degenerate person exists the potential for limitless love, compassion and wisdom. Unlike the seeds of our deluisons, which can be destroyed, this potential is utterly indestructible, and is the pure, essential nature of every living being." - The New Eight Steps To Happiness You can connect with Ellen on LinkedIn here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ellenwilloughby/ And you can find out more about her work here: - https://meditateinnorthants.com - https://www.allaboutquality.co.uk
