Rading Notes: Life of Buddha part E
Howdy again everyone, NitroDubbz back at it again with the white Vans. Nah, I'm just kidding. I'm really back with more of the Life of Buddha. Wow, exciting! Without further ado, let's get it started (haha Black Eyed Peas reference).
A lot of people in Rajagriha don't like the Buddha because I guess everyone is following him and abandoning their families or committing suicide, I'm not really sure, it wasn't too clear. Although I agree. The Buddha sounds like a troublemaker. No society can get by if everyone is just laying around meditating all day. But anyways, everyone decides to stop bullying the Buddha.
Meanwhile, Suddhodhana sends a messenger to Siddhartha telling him to return home. Buddha decides that he will return back to Kapilavatsu.
Then Buddha tells the story of the Crane and the Crab.
Buddha and his disciples were making their way to Kapilavatsu. Udayin decides to go ahead and tell King Suddhodhana that they're on their way. He ends up flying food back to and from the Buddha.
When Buddha arrives he is greeted by his father and told the story of Visvantara.
Well, that's all for today everyone. Until next time, I'm NitroDubbz.
