Camping in the Holy Land.... 

The Land of the BUDDHA...
Inspiration for Humanity.. 
Inspiration for my earthly existence....

The Land where the Prince Siddhartha became the "Buddha".....

Thinking of those times and humanity...

Nothing has really changed....

Only the nature of the then Kshatriyas seems to have changed...

Kshatriyas are now elected by Universal Adult franchise.. 

But the message of the Buddha is ever apppealing...

Wondering ????

Why ?????

Did the persons who attacked the solemn site where the Buddha received enlightnment... Did So...

Did they ever read or tried to understand what the Buddha's message was for humanity..

Did they ever desire peace for humanity.... as the Lord Buddha thought of....

I am sure .. that if they knew what they were doing... there must have been an afterthought... One cannot attack the Buddha Symbol...if one is SANE....

History of India has the example of Ashok - the Great.. 

The symbol of royalty .... who shun war for peace of humanity.... there are many more examples....

The present times have a different bearing......

Still living in a medieval era...??? suggesting that the ancient times were more enlightened than the modern ??? 

We have seen the Bamiyan destruction... But...that was in another so called country.....

This attack has been in our own land.. which we call INDIA..

a part of the historical Bharat..... which included the land where the Buddha Statues at Bamiyan were damaged....

not only in Mauryan times... but even till the British conquered our country...

but am troubled .....how many understand the implication of this attack...

at Bodh Gaya.. 

the heart of the Buddha... the heart of Buddhism.... the Glory of Bihar (derived from the Buddhist Vihara)...

I am doing a JOB..... 

I am busy investigating about the individuals who did the damage.....

But at all times while doing my JOB.. my prime responsibility....

I.. am deeply drawn into the message that the Prince Siddhartha conveyed to his times and beyond..to Today..

Sad that the message of love and peace has been misunderstood.... BY SOME..

The BUDDHA never knew.. that the site where he received enlightenment, will in the future become the Mahabodhi temple..... never did he think that it will be the future site of an explosion caused be terrorists... with chemicals.....

Today in his vision would be the most troubled times... 

The place where he found everlasting peace..where he became the BUDDHA..

is under attack from persons who may claim to be adherents of some Religion.. Religion ????? Philosophy ????????

The question needs to be re-answered.. After all .. What is religion ??? 

What is the message for the future of Humanity on this Globe..

As a generation.. 

We must try to answer... What is Humanity.. What is truth.. 

I am not confused..

But Yes.. 

The times are confusing..

As they were 2600 hundred years ago....

Then one could go in the sharan of the Buddha..

without terror.....

but today.....

there is terror all around ...

even at the site where the Buddha received ... the message of peace...... 

this terror should end....

for the future of us........

and for the future of humanity..
