M15 The enlightenment.

    Its all most time for me to go back where I belong. My adventure in India for this mission is just more important to the people who live here than me because I am the Awakened one. How you may ask? Well the story begins with a meeting with Prince Siddhartha. Prince Siddhartha was the creator of Buddhism. He was a jaunty man. At the age of 29 the prince walked away from his royal life and went in search of spiritual peace. During his journey he told me great truths changed his life. I never knew what he meant by that, but I will eventually. Anyway in India, the prince showed me how to reach nirvana, or a happiness and peacefully ideal state. The next morning I started to pray and the truths came to me.


You might  have heard of the Four Noble Truths. The Buddha would spend the rest of his life sharing these truths with the people of India. In time, followers spread the teachings throughout India and other parts of Asia.


The people of India say if you reach enlightenment,you would no longer be reborn again and again. It was not easy for me and the prince, but we made it work .Now its time to say good-bye. पुनर्दर्शनाय

M14: The myth of the Great Bath

"It's  been a long time coming" my parents say. As a kid I watched scooby doo.They solve mystery's that can never be answered by other people. And now I'm doing the same . The disappearance of Mohenjodaro is the biggest mystery of all in Indus-Sarasvati.  Anyway I am looking forward to go see the Great bath. The great bath is a Asiatic made with waterproof bricks. It was 37 ft long and 8 ft deep. Some archaeologist's think the great bath was also used for  religious ritual instead of bathing. Meanwhile I start to find clues for the disappearance. Also I talked to people to see what they think happened in the year 1900 b.c.e.
 

"I think someone poisoned everybody in the city", said a old man
 
"I think it was magic just like in Harry Potter", said a crazy man

 I couldn't find enough clues to prove the disappearance, but there was one person I didn't talk to and his name was Rio Williams. He is a good friend. He told me he did some research on the disappearance and it said The myth of the Great bath. This was told by a man named Ron Williams. He and his friends were going swimming one day. Then soon as they knew it they were drowning because they forgot how to swim. Then a few years later the Great bath clasped, well Rio was telling the story, I ate a sandwich with  extra mustard. Why didn't he tell me , said Rio with a confuse voice. I'm not sure,but i have to go. I have a long day a had tomorrow.
