So I am indebted to you with all my heart.

I also love Buddha but, Buddha was a human too.

If one does not attach the mind to Buddhist sutras, dhammas

This reply does not accord with emptiness. Emptiness is to be free from "I" and "my".

When the arahants realised dhamma, they were free from "I making" and "my making".

The enlightened mind always adheres to Dhamma

But the enlightened mind does not create "self" such as "all of my heart" or create the Buddha as a "person" to love.

It is important to distinguished between proper understanding & misunderstanding.

The Dhamma in the Buddhists suttas reflects right understanding & is a proper guide for practise.

All the best

Even if there were change & alteration in the Teacher [the Buddha], my friend, there would arise within me no sorrow, no lamentation, no pain, no distress or no despair. Still, I would have this thought: 'What a great being, of great might, of great prowess, has disappeared! For if the Blessed One were to remain for a long time, that would be for the benefit of many people, for the happiness of many people, out of sympathy for the world; for the welfare, benefit & happiness of human & divine beings.'"

"Surely," [said Ven. Ananda,] "it's because Ven. Sariputta's I-making & mine-making and latent tendencies to conceit have long been well uprooted that even if there were change & alteration in the Teacher, there would arise within him no sorrow, no lamentation, no pain, no distress or no despair."

Upatissa Sutta For a long time, Lord, I have wanted to come and set eyes on the Blessed One, but I had not the strength in this body to come and see the Blessed One.

Enough, Vakkali! What is there to see in this vile body? He who sees Dhamma, Vakkali, sees me; he who sees me sees Dhamma. Truly seeing Dhamma, one sees me; seeing me one sees Dhamma.
