Question

what is lesson on death and suffering did the Buddha teach kids gotami in the chapter,' the sermon At Benares'? (100-150) words)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Kisa Gautami was devastated by the death of her only son and wandered door to door seeking help.

Someone directed her to Sakyamuni, the Gautam Buddha, who asked her to bring a handful of mustard seeds.

This raised a hope in Gowthami's heart that her son could be revived.

But the condition imposed by Sakyamuni was that seeds should be from a house where people had not lose a loved one to death.

Gowthami's futile truth that sorrows are part and parcel of life and one can attain peace only after acceptance.

The Buddha says that everything in this world is subject to death.

He further says that world is deeply affected by suffering, death or pain

hope it helps you ♥️♥️☺️

ANSWER:-

The lesson on death and suffering that Buddha taught Gotami was that, these are part and parcel of life. No one can avoid this truth. One has to meet one's destined end one day. Whoever has come into this world will die one day. Thus, in the hour of grief for a loved one who has died, one must remain calm and composed. Then one doesn't occupy himself with grief. Otherwise, they will feel the pain more. However, those persons who are wise never complain or lament over their loss. They never try to bring back to life their loved ones who are dead, as Gotami wanted to do. They accept the truth and overcome their sorrow. Persons who overcome their sorrow will be blessed. So, wisdom is in the fact that people should not get distressed with pain, suffering or death.

This chapter highlights the wisdom taught by the Buddha in his first sermon at Benares. It was given after he attained enlightenment. In this sermon, the Buddha talks about the incident related to the death of Kisa Gotami's son. In the story, he told that we must not be sad or sorrowful about the death of any of our near or dear ones. Nobody is free from death as all ones. Nobody is free from death as allare subject to it. Only when we overcome grief we can get free from sorrows. Then we can get peace.
