Episode 16 - Life Story of the Buddha Part 1
Manage episode 298855302 series 2880636
Burgs tells the early life story of the Buddha. Born as a prince, Siddhattha Gotama was destined to become either a great monach or a great spiritual leader. Leaving his palace in his late twenties, he encounters human suffering and the very next day renouces the life of sensual pleasures to live the life of a wandering ascetic. He learns from the greatest teachers of the age, followed by undertaking austere practices, before finding the middle way and reaching his goal of the causal cessation of suffering on a May full moon.
