Just remember the buddha in your flesh

Just remember the buddha in your flesh and the world is yours. You don't have to conquer it, it is already yours. But find out the buddha in the flesh. Just a few words, and a whole philosophy...

Remain apart... That is what I mean when I say, be a witness. Remain apart, just a watcher on the hill.

Remain apart, the world in yours -- A buddha in the flesh. This remaining apart brings two things. One, a buddha inside awakens; and the other, a new mastery over the whole existence. It is not political, it is existential. It does not need to have any map, it has no boundaries. Finding the buddha in you, you have found the emperor.
