Under the shade of the sacred tree, surrounded by soft light and silent. A beautiful, serene beginning to 2026. 🙏💛
There is no better way to welcome a new chapter than by visiting the Bodhi tree. Feeling the weight of the past year lift and the hope of the new one take its place. Wishing you all a year filled with light, kindness, and steady growth. 🌿🕊
I go to see this tree on my every lunch break. I am in love with it

Buddha to his disciples, mini-series (22)
Bodhi (disambiguation) - Enlightenment and the perfection of the Buddha's Way
The 8th of December is the day, the Buddha attained enlightenment, and is celebrated every year in Buddhist communities as 'Bodhi Day'. Bodhi means enlightenment and the perfection of the Buddha's Way.
At the age of 35, Gautama Buddha (Ref) attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree (Ref2) in Bodh Gaya and became a Buddha (the awakened one).
The nature of that realisation is “the truth of the universe”. When we speak of truth, most of the time it tends to be only the truth of a certain time and a certain region. We must not forget that, in addition to such truths, there are truths that transcend time and space, that is, the truth of the universe.
This concludes the 'Buddha to his disciples, a mini-series' for now. Thank you very much. From the next issue, we will focus on 'Legendary creatures and humanoids on anthropomorphism'.
ブッダから弟子たちへ、ミニシリーズ (22)
成道 〜 悟りを開き、仏道を完成すること
12月8日は釈迦が悟りを開いた日として仏教徒の地域では、毎年「成道会」が行われている。「成道」とは悟りを開き、仏道を完成することである。釈迦釈迦(参照)は35歳のとき、ブッダガヤーの菩提樹(参照2)の下で悟りを開いてブッダ(目覚めた人)となった。
その悟りの内容は「宇宙の真理」だ。真理というと、たいていの場合、ある時間、ある地域の真理にすぎない。そのような真理に加えて、時間と空間を超越した真理、すなわち宇宙の真理があることを忘れてはならない。
「ブッダから弟子たちへ、ミニシリーズ」は今回で終了致します。ありがとうございました。次回からは擬人化された伝説の生物とヒューマノイド」を特集する予定ですので、お楽しみに。

The Bodhi Tree symbolizes profound spiritual awakening, transcendence of religious boundaries, and the embodiment of enlightenment. It is often associated with peace, self-discipline, happiness, and joy.
