So much for buddhism being atheist. It's the same bullshit as all the other religions.
He is a self realization of the living God, or Buddha, he doesn't see himself above others, in fact he see's everyone as One in Consciousness, or Buddha hood. Those who are not yet self realized, look up to him as a compassionate being who wants to see all self realized. When one is Enlightened, one then through compassion tries to point the way so others can become Enlightened. Its no different than someone who is an expert at whatever, and becomes a teacher, who teaches those who also want to be Enlightened in that particular subject.
