A. In Buddhism the mundane world is called the realm of form and the original home implies the realm of emptiness that is also referred to as the Pure Land, the Buddha Land, the true-Self. The former and the latter are not separate but identical just like winds and air.
The former is the function of the latter and is the way the latter is. However, we are unaware of this truth because we are deluded by illusions that are various images and words. In other words, we are not aware that we are in the original home whilst being actually there. So, returning to the original home means realising that we are already there.
