Buddha Shakyamuni
Each
Buddha represents a part of the virtuous nature. Every part
of it is perfect so ¡§One is all, all is one¡¨. Each name illustrates
the virtues. For example, ¡§Shakya¡¨ means kindness, teaching
us that we need to treat others with kindness and compassion.
¡§Muni¡¨ means stillness and purity. The whole meaning of Shakyamuni
teaches us to behave toward others with kindness and compassion,
to strive for purity of mind for ourselves. This is the meaning
of Shakyamuni and is innate to our original nature.
