Buddha
was the epitome of Knowledge and Compassion. HIs life and words are relevant
even 25 centuries after his time. What a great soul must he be, who inspires millions
even 2500 after his time. Those who drink and digest the nectar of his words
are sure to attain liberation. His urged all to shun anger and to take care of
the thoughts that shape our personality.
He emphasized
on self-belief.
He said, "No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path."
With regards to love and self, he said, "You can search throughout the entire universe for someone who is more deserving of your love and affection than you are yourself, and that person is not to be found anywhere. You yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe deserve your love and affection. "
His words may be
repeated endlessly. Such profound words is seen only among a few. The pearls
among men are very few. The disciplined and an all loving mind is seldom seen.
The fire of spirituality seldom burns in one's self. Buddha in all respects was
(and is) a beacon of light, who dispensed darkness with the light of his
'knowledge', and eliminated the devil with 'love and compassion'.
