Hindus believe Buddha to be an Avatara.

Seek no praise, no reward, for anything you do. No sooner do we perform a good action than we begin to desire credit for it. No sooner do we give money to some charity than we want to see our names blazoned in the papers. Misery must come as the result of such desires.

This perfection must come through the practice of holiness and love.

There is nothing so high as renunciation of self.
