I recommend that others listen to this too. Very worthwhile. I absolutely agree with what he had to say about superstition.
"Superstition is to depend on others....to rely on things outside of oneself."
"Buddhism is the approach of wisdom....for Buddhists to seek help from spirits, devas etc outside of oneself is superstition...the aim of Buddhism is to destroy superstition."
Very interesting what he had to say about the meaning of 'Buddha' at the end too.
