Where is the Existence of Dhammakaya ?

According to the old suttas, they always say that the origin of life is pure and clean. And every life in any physical form has a seed of Buddha planted inside. Every seed of Buddha is waiting to spring out. The Tathagata Garbha is the name of the seed of Buddha existing inside every life of any form. (Tathagata Garbha means Buddha in the womb or seed of Buddha inside the abdomen.) And don’t forget that Lord Buddha called himself Tathagata. And the Tathagata Garbha is The Dhammakaya or the Body of Enlightenment waiting inside for the time of awakening. Then the existence of Dhammakaya is inside our body. It is certainly at the centre of the body.

So The Dhammakaya is always with us. It is the real nature of any life. We can say that Dhammakaya is framed by our physical body and the body of relative truth (the body of heavenly life). This truth was said in the philosophy of Borobudur, one of the most famous Buddhist stupa of ancient Indonesia in the period of Sri-vijaya while Buddhist civilization was on the highest there.

And it emphasizes that Dhammakaya exists inside our physical body. All are confirmed again and again in Thailand by Luang Puu and his disciples.
