True Happiness in life, Please be happy and keep smiling

Namaste! नमस्ते! from Nabin Nischal Sirish

Life……..Oh! yeah, how do you define the life, how it feels like?
Life is life flower of rose, life is like the love song sung by greatest single, like the rhythm of guitar play, like the beautiful poem of poet, like the heart touch song script written by song writer.
Are you looking happiness?

My dear friends around the world, happiness is a gift that we can all enjoy if we choose to even though the ways gonna some way, it enters your life when you let your thinking patterns take a more positive angle rather than coming to negative conclusions hastily, the key is taking time to think about a situation in its entirety. a new angle will reveal itself which will make you understand why things happened the way they did or happened it by the way.

There is always the opportunity to be happy around every corner because life is so beautiful, where you can have a lots love, just feel it.
My dear friends learn to smile and laugh a lot more, it is infectious and soon you have others around you doing the same and time passes a lot better, just hang on and hold tide. Happy people radiate a field around them that draws others to them who want to share in their happiness. we all have come across people who have been through all sorts of problems in life and yet they have not stopped laughing or smiling. these people are examples to follow and they prove that even in their difficult times they have not given up hope or given up on life. I do believe that, life is not just about as we want easy way, but with sorrows too, that’s what gonna show us true color of beautiful life.

Happiness comes from acceptance of your situation or your surroundings. It comes from counting the blessings around you as I do love all people around the world much. Please believe each one of us has plenty of blessings if we care to count them. The gift of health, the gift of families, the gift of friends, the list is endless and if we are amongst those who have had more than their share of sadness in life, there are still things that make you have another go at life. It is a matter of finding something that will make you feel good about yourself and doing it,
To be loved gives a lot of happiness but to get this love you have to give it too. Do not hesitate to show your love to those that matter the most and caring to those that need it the most. Happiness also comes from giving to those not as fortunate as you.
Now we talk more lasting one and greatest happiness for life.

Every moment teach us meaning of every single events of life. If you looking life without sorrow then you are not happy on it’s way because you donno the true meaning of life, just look moments with happiness and sorrow halo halo (mixed), the sorrow and happiness gonna decorate all the meaningful life for us.
sometime we thing imagine that, “How could be thet, if the life gonna be with only happiness as we wanna have”, but that’s not the way gonna be because if happiness only can be meaning of struggle and wish for success then how the daily life can be on track? The person won’t learn good thing, but for self interest only, life is not just for self interest and self happiness.

Why the sad moments come in life? Why people fall sick? Why we have pain? If we know the meaning of these thing then we know the true meaning of life, not just that we can have full vision of other’s life around us who don’t have happiness in their life, who don’t have something to eat and have to struggle for meal if someone has leftover, who don’t have smile on their face.
we can find real smile which others smile, we can find real happiness on others happiness.

We usually used to visit temple, church, masjid, gumba to search God’s bless, but God will bless us only then, when we do something for others who need desperately our help as much we can help, though little bit why not. God will bless us when we know the true meaning of life with happiness and sorrow halo halo (mixed). God not just only will bless us, but will come to us if we keep our thoughts clear and positive all the time with helpful thoughts on others every needs, God will come to us only then when do do something better not just for self, but for others happiness. God didn’t promise to us that happiness which we think for self, but for sharing with others and help others to make happy.

Please see below my feeling through snaps and their sense and try to know the meaning of life.
Make them friends around you and make them happy because “Happiness is by-product of an effort to make someone else happy”, you will find God presence on their smile and God’s blessing on their happiness. There is no obstruction of color of skin, no obstruction of gender, no obstruction of language, no obstruction of cast, no obstruction of age, no obstruction status, no obstruction of rich and poor and also no obstruction of nationality in friendship.

Many thanks

Do you wanna know about Lord Buddha and his Birth place Lumbini the EDEN of Peace?

Lumbini Nepal, the Birthplace of the Lord Siddhartha Gautam Buddha

Brief Description about Lord Buddha (Siddhartha Gautam Buddha - सिद्धार्थ गौतम बुद्ध):-
Siddhartha Gautama, the Lord Buddha, was born in 623 B.C. in the famous gardens of Lumbini, which soon became a place of pilgrimage. Among the pilgrims visited to Lumbini was the Bharatiya emperor Ashoka,who erected one of his commemorative pillars there on his Lumbini Nepal visit and have wrote about. The site is now being developed as a Buddhist pilgrimage centre, where the archaeological remains associated with the birth of the Lord Buddha form a central feature.

Full Description
As the birthplace of the Lord Buddha (सिद्धार्थ गौतम बुद्ध) - the apostle of peace and the light of Asia was born in 623 BC - the sacred area of Lumbini is one of the holiest places of one of the world's great religions, and its remains contain important evidence about the nature of Buddhist pilgrimage centres from a very early period. Lumbini, in the South-Western Terai of Nepal, evokes a kind of holy sentiment to the millions of Buddhists all over the world, like Jerusalem to Christians and Mecca to Muslims.

Lumbini is the place where the Buddha, known as the Tathagata, was born. It is the place which should be visited and seen by a person of devotion and which should cause awareness and apprehension of the nature of impermanence. The site and its surrounding area is endowed with a rich natural setting of domesticable fauna and favourable agricultural environ. Historically, the region is an exquisite treasure-trove of ancient ruins and antiquities, dating back to the pre-Christian era. The site, described as a beautiful garden in the Buddha's time, still retains its legendary charm and beauty.

The birthplace of the Gautama Buddha, Lumbini, is one of the four holy places of Buddhism. It is said in the Parinibbana Sutta that Buddha himself identified four places of future pilgrimage: the sites of his birth, Enlightenment, First Discourse, and death. All these events happened outside in nature under trees. There is no particular significance in this, other than it perhaps explains why Buddhists have always respected the environment and natural law.

Lumbini is situated at west of Nepal, slightly south west of Butwal city and 33 KM west from Bhairahawa city, the foothills of the Himalayas in modern Nepal. In the Buddha's time, Lumbini was a beautiful garden full of green and shady sal trees (Shorea robusta - साल का रुख हरु ). The garden and its tranquil environs were owned by both the Shakyas and the clans. King Suddhodana, father of Gautama Buddha, was of the Shakya dynasty and belonged to the Kshatriya (क्षत्रिय - warrior caste). Maya Devi, his mother, gave birth to the child on her way to her parent's home in Devadaha while resting in Lumbini under a sal tree (साल को रुख) in the month of May, 642 BC. The beauty of Lumbini is described in Pali and Sanskrit literature. Maya Devi, it is said, was spellbound to see the natural grandeur of Lumbini Nepal. While she was standing, she felt labour pains and catching hold of a drooping branch of a sal tree (साल को रुख), she gave birth to a baby, the future Lord Buddha.

In 249 BC, when the Indian Emperor Ashoka visited Lumbini, it was a flourishing village. Ashoka constructed four stupas and a stone pillar with a figure of a horse on top. The stone pillar bears an inscription, which in translation runs as follows: 'King Piyadasi (Ashoka), beloved of devas, in the 20th year of the coronation, himself made a royal visit, Buddha Sakyamuni (शाक्यमुनी ) having been born here; a stone railing was built and a stone pillar erected to the Bhagavan having been born here, Lumbini village was taxed reduced and entitled to the eight part (only)'.

Lumbini remained neglected for centuries (कसैले पनि आफ्नो स्वार्थ बाहेक बिकाश को बारे मा सोचेनन, यदि सोच्दाहुन त आज लुम्बिनी कस्तो हुने थियो कल्पना गर्न सकिने कुरा हो, लास्ट टाईम घुम्न जादा देखे अनुसार बिदेश ले धेरै मन्दिर अनी अन्य पाटी पौवा बनाएर सजाइदियेका रहेछन्, उहाँ हरु लाई हृदय देखि धन्यवाद नदिरहन सकिन्दैन). In 1895, Feuhrer, a famous German archaeologist, discovered the great pillar while wandering about the foothills of the Churia range. Further exploration and excavation of the surrounding area revealed the existence of a brick temple and sandstone sculpture within the temple itself, which depicts the scenes of the Buddha's birth.

It is pointed out by scholars that the temple of Maya Devi was constructed over the foundations of more than one earlier temple or stupa, and that this temple was probably built on an Ashokan stupa itself. To the south of the Maya Devi temple there is the famous sacred bathing pool known as Puskarni. It is believed that Maya Devi took a bath in this pool before the delivery. By the side of the Ashoka pillar a river which flows south-east and is locally called the Ol. In 1996, an archaeological dig unearthed a 'flawless stone' placed there by Ashoka in 249 BC to mark the precise location of the Buddha's birth more than 2,600 years ago. if authenticated, the find will put Lumbini even more prominently on the map for millions of religious pilgrims. Lumbini the place of Peace and EDEN of believers of faith and Peace. (Source: UNESCO/CLT/WHC)


History:
The Shakya Prince Siddharta Gautama, better known as the Lord Buddha, was born to Queen Mayadevi, wife of King Suddodhana, ruler of Kapilavastu, in 623 BC at the famous gardens of Lumbini, while she was on a journey from her husband's capital of Tilaurakot to her family home in Devadaha.

In 249 BC the devout Buddhist Emperor Ashoka, third of the Mauryan rulers of India, made a pilgrimage to this very sacred area in company with his teacher, Upagupta, and erected pillars at Lumbini, Gotihawa, and Niglihawa, as he did in many parts of India, to commemorate his visit. The inscription on the Lumbini pillar identifies this as the birthplace of the Lord Buddha.

Lumbini was a site of pilgrimage until the 15th century AD. Its early history is well documented in the accounts of Chinese travellers, notably Fa Hsien (4th century AD) and Hsuan Tsang (7th century AD), who described the temples, stupas, and other establishments that they visited there. In the early 14th century King Ripu Malla recorded his pilgrimage in the form of an additional inscription on the Ashoka pillar.

The reasons for its ceasing to attract Buddhist pilgrims after the 15th century remain obscure. The only local cult centred on worship of a 3rd-4th century image of Mayadevi as a Hindu mother goddess. The Buddhist temples fell into disrepair and eventually into ruins, not to be rediscovered until they were identified in 1896 by Dr A Fiihrer and Khadga Samsher, then Governor of Palpa, who discovered the Ashoka pillar.

If you believe in “Peace” and “Love” then please pray for “Peace” and wish Happy Birthday to Lord Siddharth Gautam Buddha.
