Is Sakyamuni a "higher power"? Is Sakyamuni a "higher power"?

I know what I mean, by "higher power" but it may still be opaque, to you. I don't mean a substance, or all powerful personality. But something like that.

So, I mean to ask, is he like the Abrahamic God?
The Dharma is the higher power, not the Buddha Shakyamuni, who is a Nirmanakaya.

Out of the three treasures, Dharma is primary, because it remains operative regardless of appearance or not appearance of Buddha and Sangha.
