In our own Sahā world, it is we – the common mortals, full of defilements, discursive thoughts, fleeting attention spans – who are tasked with spreading the Dharma. Gods or deities aren’t spreading it. It is you and I, with all our imperfections, who are the most qualified to teach the Dharma to others, showing with our lives that there is a way to end suffering and attain enlightenment, as promised in the Lotus Sutra.
