In Buddhism the word "suchness" is used to mean the essence or particular characteristic of a thing or person. If we want to live in peace and happiness with a person, we have to see the suchness of that person. The key is knowing the person's essence. We must not expect a person always to be a flower. We have to understand his or her garbage as well.
