Más información sobre el libro

The book explores the concept of Buddha-nature and why individuals struggle to achieve Enlightenment despite possessing this inherent quality. It uses the parable of a drunkard who forgets the valuable gems in his pocket, symbolizing how selfishness and attachment to sensual pleasures can obscure one's true nature. The narrative delves into themes of moral poverty and the distractions of anger, lust, and folly that prevent individuals from recognizing and realizing their inner potential.
