What happened to the Bowl of Buddha - From Kesariya Stupa to Kandahar and Taliban
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 июл 2024
- Before his parinibbana Buddha gave his alms bowl to the Licchavis of Vaishali. Lichhavis built a large stupa to mark this event. The stupa was lost for centuries and was finally excavated in 1998 by the Archaeological Survey of India. But what happened to his Alms bowl? Did it really fall into the hands of the Taliban of Afghanistan? And what happened when Taliban found the Budda’s Bowl while they were destroying all the Buddhist artifacts displayed at the National Museum of Afghanistan in Kabul?
In Vaishali Buddha announced his approaching Parinibbana and he started his final journey along with his disciples. In deep sorrow, the Lichhavis of Vaishali kept following him towards Kushinagar and they were not willing to return. Finally to persuade them to return Buddha created an illusion of a river which finally compelled them to return. He gave them his alms bowl as a memorial and asked them to return to their respective homes.
Later the Licchavis built a mud stupa in memory of that event. This mud stupa was enlarged by King Ashoka during the third century BC. The Stupa is now known as Kesariya Stupa and is the highest stupa in the world.

listening to story of bowl of bodha sent me into deep meditative and emotional state.
O what a beautiful story of Buddha and his bowl. He was a prince but he gave humanity not a throne but a begger's bowl which appeared more valuable to him, there is no body in this world who could have done such a great sacrifice and feat. What a difference between Alexander the great and Buddha! If we all followed Buddha the world would have been a different place!
True, this era was epitome of humanist philosophy. We can only hope it's revival in fast changing world.
It’s not beggars bowl! Think twice before using words! And it’s true tht Buddhist wouldn’t mind like Islamist, if such words were used against prophet, u would have lost your life by now!
Sir (Host of this Stream i.e. Bodhisattva channel), It is a great pleasure, an honor and such a privileged to have you as a symbol of Pure, honest, a few Soul among others in the path of NirVana. Who stand for the Truth & Reality for propagating, and by spreading good things to the world and mankind. As a Buddhist, I wish you all the very best of Luck and wishing you an obstacle-free prosperous life towards the path of NirVana. Sadhu, 🙏Bow.
@@PuneethBHYou misunderstood me, I honour Buddha above any body else because of his ability to come down and take the garb of the mendicant. The moment you become possessive of your religion and turns into a fanatic you ceased to be a Buddhist. Buddha professed no religion, nor he claimed to be a prophet he just shared his experience after being enlightened. He stick to no dogma.
Great history of Buddhist tradition 🙏🏽☸️☸️☸️
Keshariya Stupa has a pride of having tallest Stupa in the world. ASI is least interested in excavation of this important site .The place that should be on India 's tourist map .is neglected. It should be developed and promoted beautifully
Are u sure it is tallest. I think sarnath, Anuradhapura and borobudur are also quite large.
Aaa
Thanks you very much for your concerns and dedication towards very precious bhudhist sites which you disclose in this vedio. 🙏🙏👍👍
The Buddha bowl was given to him by the Four Great Kings. And it was collected back by the deities when Buddha enters Nibbinna.
How u know
@@User-kjxklyntrw read from some sutra.
Possibly. 🙏
Namo budaya.
Sri vishnu God bless you. 🌼 🌸 🌻 🏵 🌼 🌸 🌻 🏵 🌼 🌸 🌻
Thank you so much for the information About Buddha bowl I Wish one day I will go and get blessing ☀️☀️☀️💐💐💐🎂🎂🎂👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏 ❤️❤️❤️
Great. Bring to light more of such Buddhist holy sites
Thanks. I am glad that you liked the video.
Sir, thank you so much for collecting highly important part of Buddha's history including Buddha's begging Bowal gifted to Vaisali Kingdom by the Buddha while departing towards Kushinagar. Yes, I had already visited Kesaria Stuppa and Vasaili Ashoka Pillar site during the end of 2019 and it was a Great satisfactory and unforgetable memory for me. It was very sad for us to observed that such an importat Buddhist Site was left in very poor condition and a bunch of Coolies were digging at the basement of the Kesaria Broken Stuppa at that time. I did't notice any Officer/Supervisory on the Site. We sat their for an hour for three times of circumbulance of the Stuppa and then read Buddhist Prayers thereafter we had started onward journey. Though Buddhism was not an outsider other religion who entered India with Military might and forcefully imposed their religions on Indians all most Nationeide. Though Buddhism was next to Hinduism and invented by the son of the soil and practiced by large number of people from lowest level people from Safaiwala to the most reknowned Samrat Ashoka whose name and fame is known to Worldwide. However, it is a matter of very sad and shameful that such a narow mindedness and strong partiality the above cited very important history site had left in the mecry of A.S.I. department.
Very interesting,Thank You! Namaste!

@@BodhisattvaTravelssadhu please mention not Sir, You deserve it. Please do continuation of your research. And bring us back the truth and good content again and again. But sir, I have a question or doubt can say that - Did Pali come first or Sanskrit language? Because all the obsolete Brahmmi lipis or scripts indicates towards Pali ? Then how and when and why Sanskrit became suddenly the obsolete language in Bharata? Curious to know it sir. I hope you will do the exact research on it. thank you sir. Satya Me Jayate. Namo Tassa, Namo Buddhaya. 🙏
Sir kindly make a exclusive video on Tamil Buddhism with a focus on Tamil Buddhist literature especially the epic "Manimekhalai Thuravu" ( The Renunciation of Manimekhalai). I can give you inputs if you instruct me to do so.
Thanks for your kind suggestion. That will be great . Thanks
@@BodhisattvaTravels here's my video link to Manimekhalai in Tamil. I'm the speaker in it, I'm asserting that the bodhava nun is the mother of all Tamils due to her unprecedented charity work in her age and times. ruclips.net/video/oUyikA_OK6I/видео.html
@@BodhisattvaTravels this is the part 2 of the same video pointing out her chronology in the 2nd century ad. Here's the link ruclips.net/video/GNqkecAsdfs/видео.html

Thank you! 🙏🙏🙏
Namo Buddhay !!
Very nicely described. Appreciate your efforts.
Thanks for your kind words. Glad that you liked the video.
It is mentioned in many Sri Lankan sources that the alms bowl of Buddha was in Sri Lanka. And in ancient times Sri Lankan kings have considered Buddhas alms bowl and buddhas tooth relic as the signs of the crown and even an indonesian king called Dharmaraja Chandrabhanu has invaded Sri Lanka on intention of taking these two relics but the problem is tooth relic remains in Sri Lanka upto this date but not the alms bowl. Can you explain what happened to alms bowl of Buddha that was in Sri lanka?
Thanks for the suggestions. I will shortly make videos on the tooth relic of Buddha (at Dalada Maligawa) at the Bowl of Buddha shortly. Please stay tuned . Thanks
@@BodhisattvaTravels Thank u sir i watched almost all of your videos last night. they are very interesting. I dont understand why i didnt find this channel previously ☺️. And consider doing videos on Buddhist kingdoms empires and travellers as well it would be also interesting as well 👍😋
@@silentkiller421 Thanks for your kind feedback and suggestions. This is some really good suggestion on which I would like to work in the near future. I am glad that you liked the videos.
I have heard that it was enshrined in a stupa in Kelaniya, and was destroyed by the Portuguese when they invaded in 1505 CE.
Bowl was in Afghanistan museum but can't say after taliban regime.
The greatest teaching of the buddha , nothing is permanent
Blessings 🙏 of Buddha for all of us ever🎉
Its grate revealed .
So intersting....
I have been to the Kesariya stupa it has a very mystical feeling there.
True !! It needs to be excavated properly and protected in better way . Thanks for sharing your experience.

Thank you sir for your invaluable information and explanation. Namaskaaram to your feet heartfully. Namaskaaram.
The Buddhas bowl has a unusual shape a bowl with two peaks opposite , resembling a basket . this shape is still being made today,
Good observation. Buddha cannot possibly have such a big bowl. It is just a replica, albeit very old.
a valuable insight.🇳🇵❤️
Sir
I do follow ur vedios on Buddhisti lore, I admire ur work dedication to help us to understand many aspects of Buddistic thoughts & principles.
I would b glad, if u could mention during ur talk/narrative, some available source as references.
May ur Path b filled with Singing Bowel sounds of Grace of universal peace.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will put the references in the video description.

It’s a big shame for India government that it can not preserve such great historical site ,which has universal value …
I blame more Buddhist people not preserving and not preventing from those Taliban mindless people.

Kesariya is most unique stupa in the world because it is the only stupa standing when the buddha was still alive.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌺🌺🌺
Anyone who destroy others beliefs are cursed for always.
the bowl will come to where it belongs. If Budha is true then all his artifacts will return to where they were originally. Budham sharanam gaxami.

Where was Buddha's palace before he renounced that life?
Dear sir as per your video kesariya stupa is not the highest in the world as that kind. In srilanka many stupas are there even 300 feets high made during 3BC. And also Buddha's bowl in sri lanka and made a stupa keeping it inside.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetavanaramaya
In which material Buddha's bowl was made up of?
Namoh bhikhkhave
Whoever is concerned about his alms bowl has not understood the Buddha well and his teachings!
The Buddhist community has been nurtured by getting relics and community participation in worship and prayer.its important for the community to protect it for themselves.
Hindutva will pull back restoration more than before!
Not really. In the last few years, there has been increased efforts by the central and state governments to restore and promote Buddhist sites. The construction of the Kushinagara International Airport to bring in International Buddhist pilgrims to the sacred Buddhist sites. Previous Congress govt did nothing to promote any Dharmic structures. Thousands of temples and viharas lie in ruin whereas majority of funds of have just gone to Delhi's monuments of Red Fort, Qutub Minar and Humayuns Tomb.
THAT IS IN PAKISTAAAAN
Buddha came here 4500 years ago, not 2500 as suggested by Communists and Christians
Prove please🙏🙏
Feel sorry for Afghanistan and bigoted Islam which has brought misery to countless people.
What this saying without understanding what is buddisam world has cheated by the buddhist monks
all these are fabricated stories,,,the Buddha Was A Sri Lankan.....
This stupa is very close to my village
Thank you for the video. But there is one thing that should be corrected (with no disrespect). The highest stupa is Jethawanaramaya in Sri Lanka. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jetavanaramaya#:~:text=At%20122%20metres%20(400%20ft,of%20the%20Mahaviharaya%20of%20Anuradhapura.
Thanks for the kind feedback and correction. Namo Buddhay !!
