Listen "3 Events in the Buddha's Life on Asalha Fullmoon | Ajahn Dhammasiha | Dhammagiri"
Episode Synopsis
Ajahn Dhammasiha talks about three main events in the Buddha's life that we commemorate on Āsāḷhā Full Moon Day:
Teaching of the first formal discourse, the 'Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta'
Conception of the Bodhisatta / Dream of Queen Mahāmāyā with the Bodhisatta approaching her in the form of a white elephant with 7 tusks and entering her body via her right side
Great renunciation of the Bodhisatta (Mahābhinikkhamana), leaving the household life in the palace, and riding out into the Indian full moon night on his white horse Khantaka, to become an ascetic
