i. e. That there is nothing that ISN'T it / Him, for those who are mindful.
The Buddha = the Teacher (of Buddhists).
He's said "He who sees the Dharma, sees Me; he who sees Me, sees the Dharma".
Here, 'Me' = the Buddha.
Dharma = The Teaching
What is the Teaching?
What is NOT the Teaching? :-)
Have I gone too far?
Emptiness? :-)

The attempt to show what is not the Buddha will fail when a Buddha explains the connections. Since all are unique places of the same reality, there is nothing outside that reality.

Dharma does not mean teaching . It means JUSTICE , righteousness
Buddha is not god .he was an avatar .Bread id not wheat .bread is made of wheat .
Many peoplke in the wast and nonHindus do not undertand till tody why the hindus worship many gods when the vedas say the god is only one .
The do not know the difference between wheat and bread .even today.
so is the case with Bhuddha . He was not God .He was an avatar of God .
He was bread or chappathy or roti or paratha made of wheat .!.
The non -Hindus would say that you should eat only the wheat and not the chapathy or bread or paratha or roti .But the Hindus woud say that it is not easy for you to digest the raw wheat and so you should eat only the roti or , bread , or chapathy or paratha so that you system can esily digest it and absorb the nutrients to enable you to grow healthy.

life in every aspect is not the buddha, it is the universe expressing itself,
the buddha at his parinibana became totaly existent and non existent, so everything and nothing is the buddha.
Dhamma practice is the practice of living nothing more and nothing less,

In layman's terms, I'd translate it as "What CAN'T you learn from?"
