Where is Lumbini ?
Once upon a time Lumbini was a horticultural spot where
people of Kapilvastu and Devdoha relaxed and got in tune
with nature. Amid the cool shadow of thick sal trees,
the
touch of the flowing breeze, and the fragrance of flowers
and
fruits, people used to live with peaceful mind. This
was the
scenario of twenty-five hundred years back when people
came to Lumbini garden. In Buddhist literature, Lumbini
was
addressed as Pradimoksya Vana and compared to the
Chittalate grove of Lord Indra’s paradise in heaven.
It was a
place where Bodhisatwa Siddhartha Gautam (Lord Buddha)
put his first step on earth. Now Lumbini is situated
in
South-Western Terai of Nepal, 20 km far from Bhairahawa.
The path of Buddha is known as "Buddhism" which spread
through
many countries like India, Tibet, China, Korea, Japan,
Thailand,
Singapore, Indonesia and many more places from Nepal’s
Lumbini. In
these countries, Buddhism has become a major religion.
The great
Emperor of India Ashoka, too, became Buddhist and through
his
effort, Buddhism flourished all over the world. His inscribed
stone
pillar in Lumbini has proven Lumbini as the birthplace
of Lord
Buddha.
