Visit Buddha's Birthplace Lumbini, Nepal for Peace In Your Life

The Buddha - Siddhartha Gautam was born into the Shakya royal family in Lumbini in south Nepal, Over 2,600 years ago.The birthplace of the Gautama Buddha, Lumbini, is the holly place for every Buddhist and other people of the world who believe in peace.This is also known as the pilgrimage destination of the world's millions of Buddhists as well as other researchers and visitors.
            Queen Maya Devi was passing through this earthly paradise on the way to her parents’ house when the pangs of labor began. After bathing in a nearby pond the queen walked 25 paces, took support of a sal tree (Shorea) and gave birth standing up. The infant Buddha then took seven steps forward and declared that this would be his final birth.

             The central focus at Lumbini is the Maya Devi temple. A stone relief (probably 2nd century AD) shows her giving birth to the Buddha watched by the two Hindu gods Brahma and Indra. The area is currently being developed into a Sacred Peace Garden spread over 8 sq. km. along with the building of several stupas and monasteries by Buddhist traditions from all over the world. The Ashoka Pillar stands out quite clearly and is surrounded by the ruins of four stupas. MARKER STONE, THE NATIVITY SCULPTURE (The image of Maya Devi), PUSKARNI, THE HOLY POND, and Nepalese and international Monasteries/ Vihars representing vernacular architecture and culture of different Buddhist countries and Buddhist traditions are the other attraction of lumbini.
                          Buddhism teaches us how to overcome our problems and difficulties by understanding and preventing their causes.  Whereas we usually look to outward circumstances for the causes of our problems, Buddhism teaches us to look inwards. Buddha showed how our feelings of dissatisfaction arise from negative states of mind - primarily anger, attachment, and ignorance - and offered methods to eliminate these by developing generosity, compassion, wisdom and other positive states of mind. Buddhism began by encouraging its practitioners to engage in smrti (sati) or mindfulness, that is, developing a full consciousness of all about you and within you -- whether seated in a special posture, or simply going about one’s life.  This is the kind of meditation that Buddha himself engaged in under the bodhi tree, and is referred to in the seventh step of the eightfold path. So there are little Buddhist Meditation centre in lumbini which offers a supportive, comfertable and peaceful meditation sitting for peace seeking people.
