And those, Ananda, who either now or after I am dead, shall be a lamp unto themselves, shall betake themselves as no external refuge. But holding fast to the truth as their lamp, holding fast to the truth as their refuge, shall not look for refuge to anyone else besides themselves. It is they who shall reach to the very topmost height; But they must be anxious to learn."In this he states that a lamp is parallel to the truth in many ways:Each person has his own lampEach lamp comforts and aids the holderIt is interesting to note that the darkness that the lamp of truth dispels is the impalpable darkness of being unenlightened.
