All Dharmas Are the True Nature of Tathātā

All phenomena are true suchness; there is not a single phenomenon that is not true suchness. Although one may now know this principle and this conclusion, it is essential to understand why and to have evidence proving this principle and this conclusion. Because this conclusion was realized by the Buddha, personally verified by the Buddha himself, and then proclaimed by the Buddha for the sake of all sentient beings, it has become the truth. This ultimate conclusion, this ultimate truth, likewise requires us to personally verify it step by step, bit by bit. Once verified, one will know both the what and the why, leaving no more confusion, no more ignorance.
