Here’s my latest travel revelation. Many hotel rooms are designed for stays of a couple of nights and don’t have enough closet or shelf storage for 1 or 2 weeks’ worth of clothes (especially in Europe and Asia).

I’ve recently started bringing a supply of these temporary hooks with me. As I unpack, I stick them all over the room and hang my jeans, jacket, shirts, hats, etc. When it comes time to check out, they detach with no marks or residue.

They’re really awesome.

The Growing Role of Buddhist Pilgrimage Tourism & its Scope in India

Buddhism originated in India and is very well known to the whole world now and the originator of Buddhism, Siddhartha Gautama is now treated as a god of patience. Buddhism, both a religion and a set of philosophical practices, is the dominant spiritual tradition in Asia and one of the great world religions. Buddhism originated in India. Gautama, after seeing the pain and suffering on the humans, felt estranged and decided to follow a path of peace.

The life path of the Buddha is followed by millions of people worldwide. Gautama was born into a wealthy family in the foothills of the Himalayas and decided to pursue an ascetic life of self-denial at the age of 29. He set out on a path through the jungles of India seeking a way past human suffering. After 49 days of meditations and praying, Siddhartha Gautama became enlightened and founded Buddhism as a religion.

There are many famous Buddhist temples in India, some of them are listed below:

Mahabodhi Temple

This temple is located in Bodh Gaya, Bihar. This is one of the most important and sacred places of Buddhism in India. It is believed to be the place where Lord Buddha attained enlightenment during sitting under the eminent Bodhi Tree. Under the famous Bodhi tree, Siddhartha Gautama became enlightened. The tree is still present inside the temple still. Emperor Ashoka built this temple in the 3rd century but the temple was rebuilt in 5th century.

Mahaparinirvana Temple

The temple is located in Kushinagar, Uttam Nagar. Its speciality is six-feet tall statue of Buddha in a sleeping posture, signifying his state of salvation that he attained when he finally left for his heavenly abode. Inside this temple, there is a Reclining Buddha image lying on its right side with the head to the north. Chandra Swami, a Burmese monk, came to India in 1903 and made Mahaparinirvana Temple.

Sarnath Temple

The temple is located in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh. The temple was built by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century. It is an extensive center for pilgrimage that draws Buddhists and Hindus from all over India and from as far as Nepal and Tibet. The site is significant in Buddhism as it contains a large stupa, which was built to commemorate the spot where Gautama Buddha first taught the Noble Eightfold Path and turned the Wheel of Dharma. After becoming an enlightened master, Lord Buddha took his first spiritual discourse here.
