The Buddha’s Words (1)

The Diamond Sutra says, “The Buddha is one who speaks true words, who speaks words that are not a lie, and who doesn’t say different words.”

Student: “What are the Buddha’s true words?”

Master: “He never said a word.”

Commentary:

The Buddha’s words cannot be dictated but can be said again, without effort, anytime.
