It is said that soon after his enlightenment the Buddha passed a man on the road who was struck by the Buddha's extraordinary radiance and peaceful presence. The man stopped and asked, "My friend, what are you? Are you a celestial being or a god?" |
|
|
"No," said the Buddha. |
|
| "Well, then, are you some kind of magician or wizard?" | |
|
Again the Buddha answered, "No." |
|
| "Are you a man?" | |
|
"No." |
|
| "Well, my friend, then what are you?" | |
|
The Buddha replied, "I am awake." |
|
| Love yourself and be awake….. Today, tomorrow, always. |
|
| First establish yourself in the way, Then teach others, And so defeat sorrow. |
|
| To straighten the crooked You must first do a harder thing… Straighten yourself. |
|
| You are your only master. Who else? Subdue yourself, And discover your master. |
