Every vehicle is Buddha

When I drive, I think 'Every one of these vehicles is a Buddha'. Everyone is acting out of great compassion for me. If they do something unexpected, it's to test if I was paying attention. If they behave angrily, I can see if I had anger in me because it is only then that anger appears. If they behave selfishly, I can recognize that and act accordingly. I can see how they drive, kind or harsh.

Every pedestrian is also a Buddha, as is every cyclist, motorcycle and big truck. Every sentient being involved in this performance is a Buddha.

When I see a lot of cars and people, I see a field of Buddhas. They are all here, manifest for my own benefit.

Thank you, Buddhas!
