It Isn't Enough To Talk About Peace. One Must Believe In It. And It Isn't Enough To Believe in it. One Must Work At It.
Gautam Buddha was sitting under a banyan tree. One day, a furious Brahmin came to him and started abusing him.
The Brahmin thought that Gautam Buddha would reciprocate in the same manner, but to his utter surprise, there was not the slightest change in the expression on his face.
Now, the Brahmin became more furious. He hurled more and more abuses at Buddha.
Gautam Buddha calmly replied, " My dear brother, I have not accepted a single
abuse from you. "
" But you heard all of them, didn't you? " The Brahmin argued half-heartedly.
Buddha said, " I do not need the abuses, so why should I even hear them? "
Now the Brahmin was even more puzzled. He could not understand the calm reply
from Gautam Buddha.
Looking at his disturbed face, Buddha further explained, " All those abuses remain with you. "
THIS ALL COULD HAPPEN WHEN A PERSON APPROACHES PEACE
That Banyan Tree IS Still There IN INDIA.
Proper Place Is BODHGAYA, in Bihar.
Bodhgaya
is one of the most important and sacred Buddhist pilgrimage
center in
the world. Here, under a banyan tree, the Bodhi Tree,
Gautam attained
supreme knowledge to become Buddha,the Enlightened One.
