BUDDHISM ORIGINSOlivia Bowyer
IntroductoryThe Buddha was not a god or a legend.
He was an amazing person that went out to seek the truth. He traveled all over finding help from others like him, almost starved to death and slept on beds of thorns. But all he had to do was close his eyes, and look within himself.
The beginning Siddharta Gautama founded
Buddhism Was born 2500 years ago Was son of the king in northern India Had a wonderful and luxurious
childhood Wanted to know how the rest of the
world lived Went to a nearby village and found
poor, and sick people He was horrified, could not enjoy
castle life any longer
The Journey Siddharta Gautama Left the palace, leaving behind family After he crossed the river, traded his silk robe for a orange
cloth one Cut off hair, gave all the jewels to a servant who took him
there Left his servant and became a poor holy person Saught out many other men who gave up everything to
look for truth Did yoga like exersizes that were supposed to help fing the
truth Lived in forests, slept on beds of thorn, almost starved
The end of the search Siddharta Gautama Arrived at a place, nowadays
called Budh Gaya Sat down under a Bo tree, sat until he found the
truth instead of looking outside he looked inside
himself
he found what he was looking for Siddharta Gautama changed to the Buddha,
meaning the awakened one.

Buddhism important locations
Melissa Cooke
There are many different religious sites that are very important to the Buddhism culture. There is the Budh Gaya which is located in northern India, this location is very important because that is where the Buddha would meditate and achieved clarity under a sacred Bo tree. Another spot is in Lumbini Nepal it was where the Buddha was born. Then at 80 years old the Buddha died in kushinagara India. (see Google Map)
