The life of Buddha shows that even a man who does not believe in God, has no metaphysics, belongs to no sect, and does not go to any church, or temple, and is a confessed materialist, even he can attain to the highest... He was the only man who was ever ready to give up his life for animals to stop a sacrifice. He once said to a king:"If the sacrifice of a lamb helps you to go to heaven, sacrificing a man will help you better, so sacrifice me. This king was astonished. - Swami Vivekananda.
