The Life of Buddha

What do i say.. i just stare at the statue of buddha on my desk thinking what can i possibly say about the enlightened one ! He is that guy who showed the world much more evolved form of existence. Avatar's of Vishnu that is believed to have come time-to-time updated the way we understood religion and restored its true spirit, though changing the mere methods. Siddhartha Gautama Buddha is the one who could comprehend the way the nature works and become the nature itself. He did not meditate on any god. he did not follow any meditation technique that would require a seeker to make initial assumptions, Blindly. He reached nirvana just in search of answers.. He chose to be known as a teacher than a god and his teachings a route to enlightenment rather than religion. Gautama buddha was not a miracle, he was answers. He did not make the impossible happen and gathered people who are looking for material benefits. His life was a simple. I thank heenayaana clan of buddhists for not following what buddha preached and indulging in idol worship, i am thankful for the history they have carried about Gautama. --A BBC made documentary.
