Ancient Secrets: Attaining peace under the Bodhi Tree


Young monks training to become messengers of peace meditating on the grounds of the main temple.

One of the most important holy sites for Buddhists is Bodh Gaya, the site where the Buddha attained enlightenment in Bihar, India. Thousands of devotees from all over the world come here daily to experience and understand the spiritual insight Prince Siddhartha Gautama Buddha attained under the Bodhi Tree.

I’m currently here soaking up sacred vibes as I perform my pilgrimage at the Unesco-declared world heritage site in Bodh Gaya.
