Any savior you project to be outside yourself denies the God within you. This is the meaning of the Buddhist maxim “If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him.” The Buddha is not a person. Like the Christ, Buddha is a state of consciousness, the awareness of divinity within you and all around you. If you limit holiness to one body or personality and you define all other beings as less than divine, you are fabricating a god that is less than God.
