Description
This photo captures a beautiful sunset inside a banyan tree wood. Gautama Buddha is believed to have attained enlightenment after 49 days of meditation, sitting under a Banyan tree—now known as Bodhi Tree—in Bodh Gaya, India. For seven days after being enlightened, Buddha sat under the Bodhi Tree, experiencing the happiness of freedom and peace. It is said that during the second week, Buddha kept looking at Bodhi Tree, in thanks and gratitude to the tree that had sheltered him during his struggle.
