107 - Be a lamp unto thyself




When Buddha was about to leave his body, his disciple Ananda started crying bitterly. Buddha asked him the reason for his crying Ananda said, "Tathagat, the light is going to go away from my life. What shall happen to me without you? I shall be nowhere."

Buddha murmured slowly, "Stop talking nonsense and be a lamp unto thyself."

You can.

Believe in yourself first.
