Two Quotations on Buddha Nature used in Sangha

from Tsoknyi Rinpoche, John Makransky's teacher:

It is taught that all beings are Buddhas in their deep nature. But this nature is covered over by their habits of thought and reaction. Everyone has original wakefulness as their basic nature, their buddha nature, so everyone can be enlightened.

From Tenzin Wangpo Rinpoche, another really renowned Dz teacher:

 Unbounded space is a great gift. Infinite A-ness is a great gift. Natural spontaneous warmth is a great gift. And these gifts are already in us in this moment. And as you recognize this, you come to know know this. And this knowing becomes the greatest resource in your life.
