A Quote by Bodhidharma on awareness, buddhism, fortune, freedom, good, heaven, hell, kindness, mortality, and power

A buddha is someone who finds freedom in good fortune and bad. Such is his power that karma can't hold him. No matter what kind of karma, a buddha transforms it. Heaven and hell are nothing to him. But the awareness of a mortal is dim compared to that of a buddha, who penetrates everything, inside and out.
