Prophecy

But if, unexpectedly, one man were to appear, one who formed no concept based on any name or form, I assure you that this man might be sought through world after world, always in vain! His uniqueness would assure him of succeeding to the Patriarch's place and earn or him the name of Shakyamuni's true spiritual son: the conflicting aggregates of his ego selfwould have vanished, and he would indeed be the One! Therefore is it witten: 'When the King attains to Buddhahood, the princes accordingly leave their home to become monks. Hard is the meaning of this saying! It is to teach you to refain rom seeking Buddhahood, since any search is doomed to failure. — Huang Po

​

Yeah, bow down to the Shaman King. Is Huang Po insane orsomething. What if humankind had died before Shakyamuni's true spiritual son came into existence?

'I truly attained nothing from complete, unexcelled Enlightenment. Had there been anything attained, Dipamkara Buddha would not have made the prophecy concerning me. '
