One
can cross the mountains on foot, as did Siddhartha, or you can hop a
ride on the great dharma vehicle that he subsequently launched. Trusting
in ourselves, we are headed for the mountains and probable failure.
Trusting in Buddha, we just might find ourselves gliding effortlessly
into the field of merit that he has so graciously spread out to receive
us.
