Buddhahood (Poem)

All, many and one,
birth, life, and death,
body, mind, and spirit,
foolish, ordinary and wise,
natural, preternatural and supernatural,
self, other and non-self:
being incomprehensible to ordinary people.
all of these and none of these at once,
is Buddha Nature being self nature,
for all beings are buddhas,
due to each one of them
having heard the Buddha's Teaching
and, through skillful actions,
strives for Buddhahood.
