Below A Tree

Rate: 1 Flag
Prayer Bench

He sat below a tree, tempted by evil but refused to see it.

Focused on the truth.

Nothing would move him from his destiny.

The earth bore witness with roars.

All fear was turned into flowers.

Even death could not sway him.

When he rose, the truth was in him.

He was determined to teach the world.

His name was The Enlightened One.

The Buddha.
