People are so eager to find a savior from without that they sometimes forget to look deeply within; Buddha nature is inherent in all of us. We only need to dig for the waters to spring up. Sometimes that digging takes a lifetime, but is every bit as worth it as one who comes forth with enlightenment early in life. That being said, yes Palden Dorje is the Buddha, and so are you, whomever you may be.
