We always say BUT...

When there is not enough devotion then we say Buddha said or my Teacher said so … BUT … We always say BUT. When there is enough faith then there is no DOUBT for us. For example, Buddha mentioned all the time impermanence and [practitioner should] not be lazy. But we are lazy. We do not think of impermanence. It is not that we do not know that. We know this well but we do not remember. Why? We do not trust Buddha’s words much. Not enough. Therefore, devotion, I said devotion is the cause, the important condition that makes great Dharma practitioner.
