Vaillant.... The Buddha taught, “As with her life a mother cares for her own, her only child, so in your hearts and minds let there be boundless love for all creatures great and small.”4 That was the faith that the Buddha spent forty-five years of his life trekking the length and breadth of India to share with all he met.

... Vaillant... Although Graham gained comfort from helping people, he did not wish to take credit for the healing process. Rather, “it is important that people know I don’t do it.
