Lord Buddha conceptualises the ideal, the example to be followed, maybe?

Except that "lord" represents "authority" and "Lord Buddha" is an externalization of our innate authority...our innate authority and birthright is projected onto a paternalistic external father figure, creating the same infantilization and perceptual chasm that exists in Christianity...causing people to chase and grasp at "The Buddha" (external authority) instead of doing the work.
