The Life Of The Buddha [Full BBC Documentary- HQ]

This documentary covers the life of Siddhartha Gautama, a young prince from India who went out to find the reason for "Dukkha" [problems] of human life. He later found the reason of Dukkha and teached a way to live life. He was later known as the Buddha, the founder of "Buddhism".

The religion with no god.
"If there is any religion that would cope with modern scientific needs it would be Buddhism." -Albert Einstein

BBC had a nice documentary covering Buddha's life important events. Watch the full documentary before commenting. BBC has not made anything wrong. They had specified that Buddha was born in Lumbini which is Nepal. Don't argue the documentary made to understand the philosophy and teachings of Buddha, no matter where he was born. Buddhism is way far ahead than what people are arguing here.

Do not believe in something because you are told to.
Do not believe in something because a holy person said it.
Do not believe in something because you read it from a book.
Follow and practice the teaching without prejudice.
If it brings happiness to you and others and does not
encourage self harm or harm to others then follow it.
Although this was taught by buddha, I believe it is a
beautiful principle that can be applied to everything
we learn in life. May you all be happy.

Life of Buddha documentary is available with English, Greek and Catalan Subtitles.

Be Happy! Peace!
Siddhartha Chabukswar

Why don't we just all agree that Buddha was born on EARTH ! He wouldn't have wanted us to fight and argue over the location of his birth. In the eyes of the Buddha, the Earth is our country, our home and all the people who inhabit it are one family. Let us not argue, but join together and promote peace.

Long live the teachings of the Buddha :)

It does not matter where the Buddha was born, only that he was born. If you attach yourself to the location of his birth, you miss the point of his teachings, and the Dharma is lost on you.

how can you say earth is our country ? if it was our country why we can't move freely in every parts of the earth? earth is a planet where you are born but earth is not our country.nationalism does not matter to you?

Buddha was born in Lumbini Nepal. Therefore Lumbini is in world heritage site. this is a third class video from bbc with wrong information. this is against sovereignty of independent country (Nepal). international court should charge bbc for spreading false information.

What IS the Buddha ??

I am not trying to be mean. I just want to understand. If people wanted to stop rebirth wouldn't they just have to stop having sex?
