Etymology[edit]

Relevance[edit]
- The buddha nature principle is most directly linked with Buddha Shakyamuni's third turning of the wheel of Dharma, where he addressed this topic at length in such sutras as Tathagatagarbha Sutra, the Mahayana Mahaparinirvana Sutra, and the Lankavatara Sutra, amongst others. Despite their roots in the Sutra tradition of the Mahayana, these teachings are also closely linked with the view and practice of the various Vajrayana traditions, such as Mahamudra and Dzogchen. CJD
