What is Jāti?

When a phenomenon manifests, another thing appears, which is called arising. All dharmas are not beyond the Tathagatagarbha; they are all within the Tathagatagarbha. Therefore, nothing is born, and since nothing is born, nothing ceases. All dharmas are fundamentally the Tathagatagarbha, neither arising nor ceasing. Thus, it is said that all dharmas are empty, devoid of intrinsic nature. We are busy every moment—what is the meaning?

To accept and believe in this principle is to attain the patience with non-arising and the patience with the dharma of non-arising. The mind consciousness easily accepts and believes; the key lies in the mental faculty. If the mental faculty can accept and believe, this constitutes realization. Complete and thorough realization is Buddhahood. It seems easy to contemplate, but putting it into practice requires three asamkhyeya kalpas—it is exceedingly difficult.

Stretching out both legs and reclining at ease, unconcerned with all affairs. Why such leisure? All dharmas are unrelated to me, nor is there any "I." All dharmas are at ease, and I am also at ease. What is there in the world to be troubled about?
