Lapho iNkosi uBuddha yaqala ukukhanyiswa
Ithempeli laseMahabodhi eBodh Gaya, elinye lamazwe aphezulu aseMelika , akuyona nje ithempeli elikhomba indawo lapho uBuddha ekhanyiselwa khona. Lezi zinkimbinkimbi ezakhiwe ngokucophelela futhi ezingenakulinganiswa zinezansi ezithokozisa kakhulu futhi ezihlelekile, abantu abavela kuzo zonke izici zokuphila abangazwakalisa futhi bazise.
Ngemuva kwehora elingaphezu kwamahora amathathu ukusuka ePatna kuya eBodh Gaya, lapho umshayeli wami ephakamisa khona uphondo lwemoto cishe engayeki yonke indlela, ngangidinga kakhulu ukuphumula.
Kodwa ingabe ngizokwazi ukuthola uhlobo lokuthula engangikufunayo?
Idolobha eliseduze kakhulu neBodh Gaya, elibizwa ngeGaya, laliyi-jumble elikhulu labantu abahamba phambili, izilwane, imigwaqo kanye nomgwaqo wezinhlobo zonke. Ngakho, nganginovalo lokuthi i-Bodh Gaya, engamakhilomitha angu-12 kuphela, ingaba nemvelo efanayo. Ngenhlanhla, ukukhathazeka kwami kwakungenasisekelo. Ngaze ngathola nokuhlangenwe nakho okujulile eThempeli laseMahabodhi.
Ukwakhiwa Kwezakhiwo ZaseThempeli laseMahabodhi
Ithempeli laseMahabodhi labizwa ngokuthi indawo yeGugu loMhlaba ka-UNESCO ngonyaka ka-2002. Okuthakazelisayo njengoba kunjalo, izakhiwo zethempelini azizange zibuke njalo ngale ndlela. Ngaphambi kuka-1880, lapho ibuyiselwe yiBrithani, wonke ama-akhawunti akhombisa ukuthi kwakuyincithakalo engabonakali futhi engaqediwe.
Kukholelwa ukuthi ithempeli lakhiwa okokuqala ngu-Emperor Ashoka ngekhulu lesithathu. Ifomu laso lamanje libuyela emuva kumakhulu amahlanu noma ama-6. Nokho, iningi lawo labhujiswa ababusi abangamaSulumane ngekhulu le-11.
Ngisho nomuthi okhona (umkhiwane) okhona esakhiweni sethempelini akuwona umuthi wokuqala uBuddha waqala ukukhanyiselwa ngawo. Kubonakala sengathi kungenzeka ukuthi ulandelana ngokulandelana kwesihlanu. Ezinye izihlahla zabhujiswa, ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, ngezinhlekelele zemvelo nezendalo.
Ngaphakathi kwekhampasi lethempeli laseMahabodhi
Njengoba ngangiqeda indlela abadayisi abanomdlandla ababezithengisa ngayo izinto ezivame ukuthandaza, ngabona ukuthi yini eyangilindela ngaphakathi kwethempeli - futhi umphefumulo wami wenyuka ngokujabula.
Bengingacabangi ukuthi kuyoba mkhulu kakhulu, futhi kubonakala sengathi kunezindawo eziningi lapho ngingahle ngilahlekelwe khona ngezizathu zayo ezihamba phambili.
Ngempela, ngaphandle kwe-shrine eyinhloko enezindlu zeBuddha ezenziwe ngopende lwegolide (ezenziwe ngamatshe amnyama awakhiwe ngamakhosi asePala), kunezindawo eziningi ezibalulekile lapho uBuddha echitha isikhathi esilandelayo ekukhanyeni. Izimpawu zibonisa ukuthi yilowo nalowo ukhona, futhi ngokuhamba nxazonke uzitholile konke, uzokwazi ukubuyisela imisebenzi kaBuddha.
Yiqiniso, okubaluleke kakhulu ezindaweni ezingcwele kungumuthi we-bodhi. Akufanele kudidaniswe nezinye izihlahla eziningi ezinkulu eziyinkimbinkimbi, lilele ngokuqondile ngemuva kwe-shrine enkulu, entshonalanga. I-shrine ibheke empumalanga, okuyinto eqondiswa uBuddha lapho ezindla ngaphansi kwesihlahla.
Eseningizimu, ichibi lihlangana nendlu ehlala ethempelini, futhi kuthiwa yilapho iBuddha kungenzeka ukuthi igeze khona. Noma kunjalo, kwakuyindawo eyayizungezile indawo yokuzindla (eyaziwa ngokuthi iJewel House noma i-Ratanaghara) eya enyakatho-mpumalanga, enkundleni yangaphakathi yinkimbinkimbi, engangiyithandayo kakhulu. UBuddha wayekholelwa ukuthi usechithe isonto lesine ngemuva kokukhanyiselwa ekukhulumeni lapho. Eduze, Amakholi enza izinsimbi lapho abanye behlanganyela emabhodini amapulangwe, ikakhulukazi abekwe otshanini phakathi kweqoqo lezintambo ezizenzekelayo ngaphansi komuthi omkhulu we-banyan.
Ukuzindla ekwakhiweni kwethempeli laseMahabodhi
Njengoba ilanga lalihlezi, namakholi eceleni kwami, ekugcineni ngahlala phansi ukuzindla kwelinye lamabhodi. Njengoba ngifunde ngaphambilini ukuzindla kweVipassana , kwaba yinto engangiyilindele kakhulu. Amagatsha aphezulu ayaphila ngezingxoxo zezinyoni, kuyilapho ubuhle bekhala ngemuva futhi ukugoqa impepho kwangisiza ukuba ngicabange ngokuthula. Kusuka kuzo zonke izivakashi ezikhalayo, eziningi zazo ezingazange zingena endaweni, ngathola kulula kakhulu ukushiya ukukhathazeka kwezwe ngemuva. (Kuze kube yilapho izinsizi ziqala ukuhlasela, lokho!)
Muva nje, insimu entsha yokuzindla yasungulwa ekhoneni eliseningizimu-ntshonalanga yethempeli, ukunikeza indawo eyengeziwe yokuzindla. Inamabhlolo amabili omthandazo omkhulu, imithombo, kanye nendawo eningi yamaqembu.
Abantu abaningi bayazibuza mayelana nokududuza kwezindlini zethempelini laseMahabodhi. Benzani ngempela? Ngombono wami, labo abazinika isikhathi sokuthula nokucabangela bazokwazi ukuzwa ukuthi amandla ayancenga kakhulu futhi avuselela. Ithonywe kahle umsebenzi omkhulu ongokomoya, njengokukhala nokuzindla, okwenzeka ezindaweni zethempeli.
Imali Yokuvula Amahora Nokungena
Izakhiwo zeTheku le-Mahabodhi livuliwe kusukela ngo-5 ekuseni kuze ku-9: 00. Akukho mali yokufaka. Kodwa-ke, ukukhokhiswa kwamakhamera kungama-rupie angu-100, nama-rupie angu-300 wekhamera yevidiyo. Ipaki yokuzindla ivuliwe kusukela ekuphumeni kwelanga kuze kufike ilanga. Imali encane yokungena ikhokhwa.
Imihlangano yokumemeza imizuzu engu-30 yenzeka ethempelini ngo-5: 30 ekuseni nango-6 ntambama
Ukuze kugcinwe ukuthula ngaphakathi kwendlu yasethempelini, izivakashi kufanele zihambe emafonini omakhalekhukhwini namadivayisi e-elektroniki ekhoneni elingenalutho lemithwalo emnyango.
