... a Bhodi tree until he achieved enlightenment. It was also under that tree that, according to Buddhist belief, he became the Buddha. The descendent of that tree is standing just behind an enormous Buddhist temple that was erected in honor of that moment. Needless to say, Bodhgaya is a pretty important place for Buddhists the world over. And as a result the town is jam packed with beautiful Buddhist temples from all over the world and makes for a ...

... has its own Temple here and I was looking forward to comparing and contrasting the difference between each temple. Our first day involved checking out the tree and trying to tactfully take some leaves without causing a fuss. I did find some nice healthy ones on the ground. Now I have 2 Holy leaves&#8230; the Bodhi tree and some leaves from the burning bush in Egypt&#8230;.(I lost both of them) but that&#8217;s not the point.. That fact is that I had both at one ...

We stopped off and stayed the night in BodhGaya and traveled the next day to Gaya, where Siddhattha Gotama meditated beneath a bodhi tree and attained enlightenment, to become Lord Buddha.<br><br> It's a beautiful place where we sat for just one afternoon and watched devoted Buddhists gather to meditate at the sacred spot under the grand old tree. Neither Mish or myself are Buddhist, but it didn't detract from our experience and we took pleasure ...

... is the Bodhi Tree under which the Buddha spent 49 days of meditation. The tree is not original but according to local lore, it comes from the stock of the original tree. Under the tree is the Vajarshila, which is a red sandstone seat that marks the spot where the Buddha sat. it dates from the 3rd century B.C. There are a large number of young and old Buddhist Monks that have come to pay homage and to meditate. There are also many other ...

... benefit but it never looks very clean. Not only the heat is a factor but also just walking around barefoot (or with socks on in Judith's case), can be difficult. Lastly on the barefoot issue, if the shoes are supposed to be taken off in order to preserve the cleanliness of the temple, then why are your feet black at the end of the day? Our next stop is the Bodh Gaya Mahabodhi Temple. This is a UNESCO World Heritage monument which is over 1,300 ...

... Nous sommes donc restes tranquilement dans notre chambre climatisee... Puis vers 17h, nous sommes sortis (avec M. Kahn, notre guide) pour decouvir un peu la ville. C'est magnifique! Des temples de tous les pays plus somptueux les uns que les autres, un Boudha geant et la zone centrale, le temple et l'arbre de Boudha... C'est vraiment tres calme, inspirant. Et vu la chaleur, il n'y a pas enormement de touristes, cest sympa.

5th April: Got to Bodhgaya after about 45mins in the rickshaw (3-wheeled taxi powered by lawnmower engine) and arrived at the deep guest house which proved the lonely planet (or the book) right in that the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and the room was pretty nice as well, even had a TV. Unfortunately the power was prone to switching off occasionally but this we could live with. At last an India we could get on board with! After pancakes and a nap (about ...

This time I bought a sleeper class seat on the Indian Railways. It was not too bed but in the morning got really hot. While on the train, I was watching this guy eating a sanwich. After he was done there was a sanwich wrap left over, and you know what he did with it? he tossed it out the window.. haaa, that how they dispose of their garbage.

Written by Nelly Written on May 19th, 2005 in Calcutta To Bodgaya To get to Bodgaya, we first took the train from Varanasi to Gaya. From Gaya, we shared an auto rickshaw to Bodgaya which is only 13 km away. Out of all the working rickshaws in Gaya, we happened to jump into one that had mysterious mechanical problems. The driver would drive for about 300 meters, then he would jump off to tinker with the engine. We'll then start moving again. I ...
