I was an only child,loved by my mother and father.They had me by practicingmany supplications and observances.

“Ekaputto ahaṁ āsiṁ, piyo mātu piyo pitu; Bahūhi vatacariyāhi, laddho āyācanāhi ca.

Out of sympathy for mewishing me well and wanting the best for me,my mother and fathertook me to see the BuddhaBuddhaEl nombre dado a quien redescubre por sí mismo el sendero liberador del Dhamma, tras un largo período de haber sido olvidado por el mundo. Según la tradición, una larga línea de Buddhas se extiende hasta el pasado distante. El Buddha más reciente nació como Siddhattha Gotama en la India alrededor del año 500 a.e.c. Un joven bien educado y acomodado, renunció a su familia y su herencia principesca en la flor de la vida para buscar la verdadera libertad y el fin del sufrimiento (dukkha). Después de siete años de austeridades en el bosque, redescubrió el «camino medio» y alcanzó su meta, convirtiéndose en el Buddha.Ver en el glosario.

“We had this son with difficulty;he is delicate and pampered.We offer him to you, Lord,to attend upon the victor.”

The teacher, having accepted me,declared to Ānanda:“Quickly give him the going-forth—this one will be a thoroughbred!”

After he, the teacher, had sent me forth,the victor entered his dwelling.Before the sun setmy mind was freed.

The teacher didn’t neglect me;when he came out from seclusion,he said: “Come Bhadda!”That was my ordination.
