What I’ve Learned
What I’ve learned from reading the Journal Article, The Life of the Buddha: An Interpretation from Nagao, Gadjin M.
“Budda truly led the life of a homeless wanderer, sleeping under trees with only a rock as a pillow and sustaining himself only by receiving alms from others.”
This way of living was his journey to enlightenment which was eventually accomplished before his death.
