Mystery of Bu RT
Understanding the Meaning of Symbols

As they observed the reliefs adorning Borobudur Temple, Bu RT began to give a deep explanation of the meaning of the symbols in it. He gently provides insight into Buddhism and how each scene represents stages in the spiritual journey.

"Seeing the Buddha's birth scene, we can understand its meaning" Ms. RT said, pointing to a relief depicting the birth of Siddhartha Gautama. "The Mayan queen who sleeps is a representation of a calm and normal life. The dream of a white elephant coming to touch his belly is a symbol of wisdom that would be possessed by a Buddhist candidate. The birth of the Buddha with the right hand outstretched up and the left hand pointing to the earth is a symbol of acceptance and giving, reminding us to live in peace and giving love to the world."

Maya and Adi listen attentively, trying to permeate every word spoken by Bu RT. They feel that they are getting more than just a history lesson; they are gaining insight into a meaningful way of life.

Bu RT then directed their attention to reliefs depicting the Buddha's journey to enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. "The Bodhi Tree is the place where Siddhartha Gautama attained enlightenment" he explained. "This tree symbolizes a place of deep peace and understanding. When Buddha attained enlightenment under this tree, he understood the nature of life and became a wise teacher to all of us."

They contemplated the meaning of the Bodhi tree with great reverence, feeling that they too were under a sacred shadow. Ms. RT continued to explain the Buddha's teachings about the four noble truths, the eight noble paths, and the concept of karma, helping them to understand more deeply about the teachings that Buddha received.

Then, they stopped in front of a relief depicting Buddha giving teachings to his followers. "This is the essence of Buddhism" Ms. RT said. "He teaches us to overcome suffering, seek wisdom, and live life with compassion."

Adi, Maya, and Bu RT increasingly appreciate the deep meaning of each scene they see. They feel that they have gained a deeper understanding of the Buddhist teachings and how to apply them in daily life.

As they continue their journey around Borobudur Temple, they know that they will encounter more inspiring symbols and stories. They feel lucky to have Bu RT as their guide, helping them understand the true meaning of this incredible temple.

As they continued to explore Borobudur Temple, Adi, Maya, and Bu RT suddenly met a monk who was meditating quietly in one corner of the temple. The monk's presence felt peaceful, and they felt as if this was a meeting that fate had planned.

The monk smiled as they approached and saluted respectfully. "Welcome, friends who seek knowledge" he said in a soft voice.

Adi, Maya, and Bu RT were pleased and honored by the monk's warm welcome. They sat around the monk, ready to listen to the teachings and insights he might have given.

The monk then began to talk about Buddhism and the meaning of Borobudur Temple in a spiritual context. He explains that this temple is not only a physical building, but also a profound symbol of one's spiritual journey towards enlightenment.

"Each level of Borobudur Temple represents stages on the journey to self-understanding and enlightenment" the monk said. "As the temple is built in stages, so is one's spiritual journey. We have to go through these levels of consciousness to achieve true enlightenment."

The monk also spoke about the importance of meditation in achieving self-understanding and inner calm. He explains that meditation is a powerful tool for contemplating and understanding our own thoughts and feelings.

"Through meditation, we can find peace within ourselves and see the interconnectedness between all living beings" the monk said. "This is the first step towards a true understanding of reality."

Adi, Maya, and Bu RT felt inspired by the monk's words. They felt that this encounter was a life-changing gift, bringing them closer to understanding Buddhism and the importance of living a meaningful life.

After talking to them for a while longer, the monk returned to meditating quietly. Adi, Maya, and Bu RT stood respectfully and continued their journey around the temple, feeling that they had gained a precious gift in the form of spiritual insight from this unforgettable encounter.

After talking with the monk and deepening the spiritual meaning of Borobudur Temple, Adi, Maya, and Bu RT pondered for a moment on one of the temple terraces. They sat there, looked at the beauty around, and felt that their presence in this place was a very rewarding experience.

The sun began to set on the horizon, giving a golden light that adorned the reliefs of the temple. The air was so calm, and only the soft sound of wind flowing across the hills could be heard. They feel that the blessings emanated from the beauty of this temple bring peace and a deeper understanding of spiritual values.

Adi breathed deeply. "It was an amazing experience" he said with awe. "I feel that we have touched a small part of the wisdom and serenity attained by the monks and people of that time."

Maya agreed. "I feel that this journey has opened our eyes and hearts" he said softly. "We now have a responsibility to bring these lessons and experiences back to our own time and share them with others."

Ms. RT smiled gratefully. "I feel that we have been blessed with blessings and enlightenment in this place" he said. "We must keep our spirits alive and respect the teachings we have learned."

They sat there in silence, contemplating the extraordinary experience they had experienced. They feel that Borobudur Temple is a place filled with holy spirit and eternal inspiration. By the time the sun fully sets, they stand up and prepare to leave the temple.

They know that their journey will still continue, but they bring back with them the blessing, understanding, and determination to live a more meaningful life. While stepping away from Borobudur Temple, they feel that they have touched deeper wisdom, and they are ready to incorporate it in their own lives and share it with others.
