Week 11: Reading Diary B

Source: Buddha

This week I decided to read The Life of Buddha: Part Two Sacred Text (Source Here)
  • Buddha has ultimate wisdom, but refuses to enter nirvana before teaching his wisdom to others. 
  • He turns girls into hags from seducing him, but is kind when they admit their faults
  • Trapusha and Bhallika are the first to have faith in Buddha
  • Buddha is hesitant to share his knowledge because he doesn’t think people will understand
  • Buddha attempts to make Rudraka hear his words, but instead he preaches to disciples. 
  • The disciples do not acknowledge Buddha, but when he tells them “truth” they become faithful in him
