Anything which tastes good, bad, delicious, distasteful, bitter or astringent, will become as delicious as the nectar of heaven and not distasteful when it is put on their tongues
Innate endowment benefits and enriches us, enabling us to obtain the taste of the “sweet dew” present in us. Yet the rewards we receive are originally not “bitter and astringent.” How then can there be changes? But [the Buddha] says that there are, in order to draw them into a feeling of intimacy. The same is true when it comes to the rewards in connection with “sounds” and “scents.” How can they be spoken of as “ugly”? Yet, worldly sounds and scents [can be distinguished as] good or bad. When the bodhisattvas hear it, what harm is there then?
