Diamond Sutra, chapter 23
"I don't have the idea that I will lead all beings to Awakening. Do not think that way, Subhuti. Why? In truth there is no one for me to lead to Awakening. If I thought that there was, I would be caught in the ideas of self and other. Subhuti, what I call a self essentially has no self in the way that ordinary people think there is a self."
For the Buddha, the boundaries that separate self from other are dissolved. The Buddha doesn't lead others to Awakening because the truth is there are no others. The Buddha teaches us that the essential truth is that we are one.
