This series of articles will give you a sense not only of Buddha's life, but also of the atmosphere of Indian society at that time. I am sure this will be an exciting experience for all of you.

Although "learning about religion and Buddhism" may sound pretentious, I hope that you will take it easy and experience the life of the great Buddha.

Now, I have told you about Buddha's life 23 times, and in this 24th installment, Buddha's life will finally come to an end.

In this article we will discuss Buddha's final journey and his death and cremation. Buddha's 80-year life finally comes to an end.

Up to the last article, I have talked about the rapid expansion of the Buddha cult.

With the addition of capable disciples and the support of great kings and merchants, the Order of Buddha emerged as a truly great cult.

The chief of the group, Buddha, is finally returning to his birthplace. In this article, we will discuss how it all happened.

The Buddha came to the great country of Magadha. He came all the way to Magadha to learn from the best meditators of the time, from whom he learned meditation, the basis of his ascetic practice. In this article, we will talk about Buddha's life of severe asceticism. The famous image of the fasting Buddha in Gandhara is the Buddha in this period of asceticism.

After spending many depressing days, Buddha finally sets out on his journey with great ambition. However, it was extremely difficult for Buddha, who lived in the royal palace, to escape from there without anyone knowing about it. He turned to his horseman Channa and his beloved horse Kantaka. In this article, I would like to tell you the story of how Buddha was ordained.

Buddha spent his young days in Kapilavastu, the capital of the Shaka tribe. In the previous article, we saw how the Buddha had come to the point where he had decided to become a monk through Shikumon Deyu, and in this article, I would like to share my impressions from actually walking through the place where the Buddha's life took place. I was able to see Buddha's image only because I actually saw him in the area.

In my previous article, I talked about the birth of Buddha, and in this article I will talk about his youth.

This article will also discuss the "Shikumon Deyu" that inspired Buddha to become ordained, and the royal palace in Kapilavastu where he lived.

Buddha, born in Lumbini, would soon return to the royal city of Kapilavastu.

But here was a tragedy that no one could have predicted. Queen Maya died suddenly seven days after giving birth to Buddha.

How did my mother's death affect Buddha?
