Life is full of trials and …

This story of Kisa Gotami speaks of mortal human beings who must face suffering and death. It is a lesson on the necessity of overcoming personal tragedies and moving on in life. The woman in the story was searching everywhere for someone who could revive her dead child. But nobody can do such a miracle. Finally, a person sends her to Buddha because he was sure that Buddha would help the poor woman to come to terms with her lost and grief. Buddha finds an innovative approach to make that lady realize the truth of death. On Buddha’s command, Kisa Gotami goes in search of a house where nobody had ever died. But it is impossible to find such a house. The poor Iady realises the important lesson which Buddha wanted to teach her. Death comes to every family. Human life is full of trials and tribulations. It is filled with suffering and each person must overcome them. Real wisdom is to accept the inevitable and continue the journey of life.
