I just saw the following Quote of Buddha. 

====== r@e

"Therefore, Ananda, be ye lamps unto yourselves, be ye a 
refuge to yourselves. Betake yourselves to no external 
refuge. Hold fast to the Truth as a lamp; hold fast to 
the Truth as a refuge; look not for a refuge in
anyone beside yourselves. And those, Ananda, who either 
now or after I am dead shall be a lamp unto themselves, 
shall betake themselves to no external refuge, but holding 
fast to the Truth as their lamp, and holding
fast to the Truth as their refuge, shall not look 
for refuge to anyone beside themselves- it is they who 
shall reach the topmost Height."
