Siddartha is dead according to Theravada Buddhism. He's not helping anybody.
According to Mahayana, he never achieved Nirvana to help others.
That means he's helping people to achieve what he himself has not achieved. [img]smile.gif[/img]
So which is it?
Where do you stand?
Bodhisattvaless or Bodhisattva assisted?
