Nirvana Day
Mahayana Buddhists around the world commemorate Nirvana Day on either February 8th or 15th. Buddha's death and his initiation into complete Nirvana are commemorated in this case, also known as Parinirvana Day.
Some people mistakenly believe that the historical Buddha was a goddess. However, he was a common individual named Siddhartha Gautama. Buddha was actually his name, according to him. "A person who is awake" is described as "buddha."
In Nepal, the Buddha is believed to have been born in 567 BC. Prince Siddhartha was the son of a king's son. He was 29 years old when he encountered his first sick man, an old man, and then a corpse. He knew that even though he was king, he would one day die. He went on a spiritual journey to prepare for this day. He renounced his worldly life at this time. He found that meditation was the only way to a peaceful existence.
He sat in meditation under a ficus tree for one day until he realised enlightenment. He became known as The Buddha from that time on. He spent the remainder of his life teaching others how to achieve enlightenment for themselves. This enlightenment focuses on four noble truths: This enlightenment focuses on four noble truths:
- Suffering is part of life
- Desires are the source of pain
- Overcoming dreams can bring relief
- Following the Eightfold Path, which is represented by a wheel, can also relieve pain
When enlightenment comes, it is called partial nirvana. Only in death can complete or final nirvana. This is the time when all hunger and pain are gone. At the age of 80, the Buddha died at the age of 80. His disciples established schools in his name after his father's death.
