Inspiring Faith: All Beings Have Buddha Nature - Why is it the most important Mahayana concept?

A student asks Venerable Zasep Rinpoche: "What is Buddha Nature and Why is it important?" In a follow up, he asked "How is it different from the soul?"
"Everyone has Buddha Nature," explains H.E. Zasep Tulku Rinpoche in a "learning from the Teachers" video on the topic.
In a short video teaching, Venerable Zasep Tulku Rinpoche explains why understanding “Buddha Nature” - in Sanskrit, tathāgatagarbha - can really inspire your Buddhist practice. This short teaching was in response to a question from a student.
With permission, five minutes of beautiful mantra chanting of the Heart Sutra Mantra with Yoko Dharma ends the session with meditational video images.
