That's mama rabbit and papa rabbit in Tibetan. They are in love, can't be apart. But when held together in your fist, they will spawn lots of little bunnies. The monks loved it!

 

This is their idea of being an audience: they were all over me!

Formerly known as Isipatana, Sarnath is famous as the site where Gautama Buddha first taught the Dharma, or where Buddha preached his first sermon. It is one of the four main Buddhist pilgrimage destinations and has been developed as a place of pilgrimage for Buddhists from India and abroad.

Went to Sarnath on Dec 11, 2008. Sarnath is less than 30k from Varnasi.. but road conditions and the crowd make it a ardous journey.

 

Sarnath is where Gautama Buddha first preached to 5 of his disciples..

 

Also, we saw a huge tomb built by King Asoka plus the excavations of a huge Monstary..

 

Overall a nice place to visit..

 

Didn't have time to visit a Govt run museum.. that's where the Ashoka Chakra.. emblem of India is kept..

Trip to Varanasi and Sarnath in India.

Sarnath is a city located 13 kilometres north-east of Varanasi near the confluence of the Ganges and the Gomati rivers in Uttar Pradesh, India. The deer park in Sarnath is where Gautama Buddha first taught the Dharma, and where the Buddhist Sangha came into existence through the enlightenment of Kondanna.

Here the Buddha delivered his first sermon, and "The whole ten-thousand-fold cosmos shook and a limitless radiance extended throughout the cosmos surpassing even the radiance of the deities." Would have been cool to be there.

鹿野苑顯得氣定神閒。這個靜謐的小鎮,在佛教徒心中,卻有著神聖非凡的地位。曾經佛陀從近三百公里外的菩提迦耶獨行至此,將自己證得的世間正法,第一次傳授給了五位長老比丘。傳承佛法最重要的三寶--佛、法、僧在這裡初次齊備於人間。六十位初期僧侶從這裡出發,將佛法散播到整片印度大陸上。這裡也是玄奘筆下「區分八界,連垣周堵、層軒重閣,麗窮規矩」的佛法修學中心。……
