KIRILL J. SOLONIN The Teaching of Daoshen in Tangut Translation: The Mirror of Mind
The master asked the official Cän. "What is the meaning [of the word] 'Buddha"?"
[The official] answered: "'Buddha means 'to be enlightened'
The master said: "Has the Buddha ever been deluded'?"
He answered: "He was never deluded. '
The master said: "Since he was never deluded, what is the point of becoming enlightened'? "
[The official] was unable to answer.
