The Life of the Buddha|Ep21 | His Last Journey

Ep.21 His Last Journey
The Buddha foretold the time and place of his passing, saying that he would die three months hence in the small town of Kusinara.
When he told this to Ananda, Ananda begged him:
Please stay and continue helping people to end suffering!"
The Buddha replied:
"Ananda, the life of the Buddha is drawing to its close. He will attain final nirvana three months from now. Death is unavoidable."
The Buddha, knowing that his life must soon draw to a close, told Ananda to summon all the disciples who were in the neighbourhood of Vesali. When they had met together he earnestly enjoined them to spread the truths of pure religion for the good and happiness of mankind.
Passing from village to village in a north-westerly direction, the Buddha came to a place called Pava, where he stayed in a mango grove belonging to Chunda, a worker of metals.
Chunda made all ready for the feast, and provided sweet cakes and rice and mushrooms.
After eating, the Buddha was attacked by a severe sickness, with sharp pains as if he was about to die. But he endured all this mindfully, clearly aware and without complaint”.
