Is Buddha your God? What is the Buddhist bible called?

The Buddhist is not a God. He is just a man. A man with a name (Siddhartha Guatama). A man with a human mother and father. A man with a wife and child. A man with a heart.  A man who reached the highest happiness (Nirvana) through human effort. There is no Buddhist bible. There are Sutras which are aphorisms written either by the Buddha or masters of Buddhism. But these Sutras are not to be revered. They are simply meant to inspire or provoke thought, and nothing more. You are not a bad buddhist if you do not read them. Mr. Guatama said that no one should simply believe what he said, but we should all think for ourselves and discover the truth through analytical meditation. There are Buddhist temples that have revolving bookcases full of Sutras. But it is said that you gain as much merit from spinning the bookcase once as you do from reading all the sutras. My religion is simple. My mind and body are my temple, and my philosophy is kindness.
