It also describes places associated with the Buddha’s life – where he was born (Lumbini), where he attained enlightenment (Bodh Gaya), where he gave his first sermon (Sarnath) and where he attained nibbana (Kusinagara). Gradually, each of these places came to be regarded as sacred. Sanchi is a significant Buddhist site, but not directly linked to the life events of Buddha (it gained importance later as a Buddhist center). The Sanchi stupa houses Buddha's relics. |
