Huineng Poem

Deluded, a Buddha is a sentient being;
Awakened, a sentient being is a Buddha.Ignorant, a Buddha is a sentient being;
With wisdom, a sentient being is a Buddha.If the mind is warped, a Buddha is a sentient being;
If the mind is impartial, a sentient being is a Buddha.When once a warped mind is produced,
Buddha is concealed within the sentient being.If for one instant of thought we become impartial,
Then sentient beings are themselves Buddha.In our mind itself a Buddha exists,
Our own Buddha is the true Buddha.If we do not have in ourselves the Buddha mind,
Then where are we to seek the Buddha?
