"Of course the Buddha emanates in many ways. For example, there are the three kayas: the Dharmakaya, Sambhogakaya, and Nirmanakaya. All three of these levels have both male and female, as well as peaceful, wrathful and semiwrathful aspects. Buddhas manifest in countless forms, but they are all the same Buddha, and there is no difference in their realization; none is higher or lower. All appear in order to benefit sentient beings." |
