At the sacred Maha Bodhi Temple in Bodhgaya, the foremost spiritual site of the Buddha’s enlightenment. A place of great reverence with wonderful memories to last a lifetime.
At Sarnath, the historic site where Gotama Buddha first taught the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, Setting in Motion the Wheel of Dhamma, followed by the Anattalakkhana Sutta to the first 5 disciples and all attained Arahantship. This was the blessed place where the original Sangha Order was formed.
Profoundly joyous – At Vesali, where the Bhikkhuni Sangha was first formed when the Buddha ordained his maternal aunt, Mahapajapati Gotami into the Order and she became the First Bhikkhuni. This site has one of the most well-preserved of the Ashokan Pillars.
