Answers
Answer:
Life is full of trials and tribulations which can be overcome by a human being through his own efforts. When Kisa Gomti's child died she was unable to accept the fact. She used to carry her dead child to the neighbor to give him some medicine as he's sick.
Lord Buddha told her to ask for mustard seeds from the house where no one has died ever. She realized in this process that death is the part of life.
Explanation:
The question is asked from the story The Sermon at Benares which is written by the writer Betty Renshaw.
Answer:Yes, Life is full of trials and tribulations which can be overcome by a human being through his own efforts. When Kisa Gotami's only son died, she went door to door asking for medicine to cure her child as she could not believe the fact that her son had died. Then she met Lord Buddha to whom she told her story of pain and asked for a solution to get her child back. Lord Buddha told her to collect mustard seeds from the house where no one has died ever.While completing the task given by Buddha, she realised that she was being selfish and understood that death is the part of everyone's life and it is common to all yet in the valley of desolation, there is a path that leads one to immortality to one who has surrendered all selfishness.
