Praying to a Deity


There is definitely no Teaching in Buddhism to the effect that Buddhists can attain Nibbana [Nirvana] by praying to any deity. Buddhists believe that "purity and impurity depend on oneself. No one from outside can purify another." - (Dhammapada 165) 

---What Buddhist Believe, by K. Sri Dhammananda---
