The Hswagata Buddha Tooth Relics Preservation

Remember the Buddha's emphasis in the Mahaparinibbana Sutta - the best way to honor him is through practice: "Whoever, Ananda, practices the Dhamma in accordance with the Dhamma, that one honors, reveres, and serves the Tathagata with the highest homage."

The Buddha's decision to leave relics (dhatu) after his parinibbana had several important purposes: The Significance of Buddhist Relics and Sacred Sites 1. As Objects of Devotion and Remembrance: The Buddha recognized that physical reminders would help practitioners maintain their faith and practice. In the Mahaparinibbana Sutta (DN 16), the Buddha designated four places worthy of pilgrimage (cattāri saṃvejanīyaṭṭhānāni): "These four places, Ananda, should be seen by the faithful... Which four? - Lumbini, where the Tathagata was born - Bodhgaya, where he attained supreme enlightenment - Sarnath, where he first turned the wheel of Dhamma - Kushinagar, where he attained parinibbana" 2. For Spiritual Development: The relics serve as aids for contemplation and developing mindfulness of the Buddha (buddhānussati).

Dream Number 5: A Message and Alert to the World

I stood there, curious but also cautious, watching them perform their task with great care. One of the women, her voice soft but firm, turned to me. "Stay away from this process," she said. "This is not for you." There was a tone of finality in h...

Mysterious Buddha’s Rays Emanating from the Stupa

- Saturday, February 08, 2025

Okasa Bhante, Venerable Indasoma, I am seeking clarification regarding the display of Buddha rays on Buddha image memorials. While my understanding of Vinaya and practice is generally clear, ambiguities in certain traditions and unclear references raise doubts. I humbly request the Venerables to share any merit accumulated regarding this topic, out of compassion. Question from Venerable Sasana. Here the answer so far: - Namo tassa bhagavato arahato sammā-sambuddhassa - Venerable members of the Sangha, walking in front Fellows in leading the holly life. Venerable fellows, In Respect of the Triple Gems, Buddha, Dhamma and Sangha, in Respect of the Elders of the community ....... Throughout Buddhist history, the appearance of Buddha’s rays, known as Chabbaṇṇa-raṃsi , has been considered a sacred and auspicious occurrence.
