About This Quote
“Who prays at help in the Illusion of his Life does not understand that his only aid is death” is a wise saying from the ancient Buddhist teacher Nagarjuna, who lived some 2,000 years ago. In this quote, he is refuting all those who put their faith in life and those who put their faith in the gods of the universe. The gods cannot truly help anyone because they are also caught in the illusion that we must die and that we must continue to live. Only then can we be helped by them and only then can we continue to live.
