The Buddha said:
Apart from myself and those like me, no one can judge another person.

"If a form could be had for the full
Merit of the Enlightenment Thought,
It would surpass even one
That filled the whole realm of space."

"Or take a man who owns jewels, and with them
Fills every one of the Buddha-fields -
Reckoned as more than the grains of Ganga's sands -
Then offers all this to the Lord of the World;"
17
"Yet another who merely folds his hands,
And inclines his thought to Enlightenment.
The latter's worship is higher by far,
Because in it there is found no limit."
