I am the Buddha
but so are you.
In the morning
the Buddha smiles at me
from the mirror
and the people I meet.
When I’m hungry
the Buddha feeds me
in the food I eat.
When I’m weak
the Buddha makes me strong
through the strength of others
who help me.
When I’m sick
the Buddha heals me
through those who know
the healing arts.
When I’m afraid
the Buddha comforts me
in a friend’s embrace.
Where is the Buddha?
I am here in you.
