Dharamsala Travel to Life of Buddha in India

Prince Siddartha was born in Lumbini in the foothills of the Himalayas in what is now, Nepal), to the Kshatriya caste of warrior-aristocrats. He was the heir to the position of "prince" of the Shakya clan's village of Kapilvastu.

Siddharta married and had a son: Rahula. There were three main incidents which affected and questioned his soul immensely. He saw a diseased person, an old man and a dead body. In search of permanent salvation and joy , at age 29, around 534 BC, Siddharta abandoned his inheritance and palace and began living an ascetic life wandering from place to place.

After six years, around 528 BC, he found that the severe practices did not lead to greater understanding,and concentrated on meditation and the "middle path" (a practice of non-extremism). This enlightenment of the Mind and Freedom of the Soul came to him in Gaya under a Bodhi tree. This enlightenment is called a state of "Bodhi," and hence the name "Buddha," or "Enlightened One."

Discover with Dharamshala Travel "The Last Meal"...

Starting from Sarnath - Varanasi where he gave His first sermon, the remaining 45 years of his life, he traveled the Gangetic Plain of central India teaching his meditation practice to all. He founded the community of Buddhist monks and nuns (the 'Sangha'), to continue the teachings after his death.

After intermittent illness, the Buddha died at Kusinara (now Kusinagar, India) at the age of 80. His last meal was 'sukara-maddava' which he had received as an offering from a smith. The correct translation of this term is unknown; 'sukara maddava' apparently means something like a "delicacy". Sukara-maddava may mean "mushrooms or tubers enjoyed by pigs". Vegetarianism is for Buddhists an ideal rather than a mandate, and monks and nuns in particular are allowed to accept all offerings of food made to them (unless they know an animal has been killed especially to feed them).

Your Dharamsala Travel to India will be a journey of 'Self Realisation'..a permanent joy in your life. Remember Buddha's last words in the town of Dalai Lama : "Subject to change are all things. Strive on with diligence."

"Hello! Iam finally back in Kansas City right in the middle of North America. Although Iam enjoying getting back into the swing of things here, I miss Dharamsala very much. My too short trip there, left such a great impression that can only be surpassed by another longer trip. I have never slept better and Vidya Niwas is one of the most relaxing place I have been. I feel very grateful for a very enjoyable stay and miss the good food. Every moment was 'special'!
