BODH GAYA: THE SE OF THE BUDDHA’S ENLIGHTENMENT

Bodh Gaya is the place where the Buddha attaed enlightenment—over lennia has been renstcted and reimaged. * from buddha gaya *

At the heart of ancient Bodh Gaya is the Mahabodhi Temple Complex, which is by wh shr, monuments, and sculpted imag tablished over more than 2, 000 years.

Buddhist tradns diverge on some of this acunt but this moment and the place at which occurred, unr the Bodhi tree at Bodh Gaya, is signifint to all Buddhist tradns.

BODH GAYA

Bodh Gaya, town, southwtern Bihar state, northeastern India. It is suated wt of the Phalgu River, a tributary of the Gang (Ganga) River. Bodh Gaya ntas one of the holit of Buddhist s: the lotn where, unr the sacred pipal, or Bo tree, Gtama Buddha (Prce Siddhartha) * from buddha gaya *

As the place where the Buddha attaed enlightenment, Bodh Gaya appears to have bee a signifint place for Buddhists soon after the ath of the Buddha and the formatn of the Buddhist muny of monks and nuns (Sanskr, sangha) and lay people. Very ltle is known, however, about the earlit stctur at Bodh Gaya, and centuri of addn and alteratn make difficult to image how this se appeared at any particular moment the past. In some Buddhist tradns Bodh Gaya self is referred to simply as the “Diamond Throne” (Sanskr, vajrasana), ditg the signifince of this throne to the inty of this sacred se.

Bharhut relief wh Diamond throne and Mahabodhi Temple around the Boddhi Tree (om Sir Alexanr Cunngham, Mahâbodhi, or the great Buddhist temple unr the Bodhi tree at Buddha-Gaya, 1892). This broadly agre wh the scriptn of Mahabodhi Temple given by the Che pilgrim Xuanzang who vised Bodh Gaya centuri later, at the end of the 7th century C. Depictns of the Mahabodhi Temple also suggt the creasg importance of the temple hog the Buddha image s own right as a sign for Bodh Gaya and the events there, although the Diamond Throne and the Bodhi tree ntue to be picted alongsi them.

” The scriptns, the pictns of the Mahabodhi Temple art, and other evince for royal and foreign-sponsored programs of rtoratn suggt an important shift om tree shre to the buildg of templ, shr, and monasteri at Bodh Gaya over the urse of the 1st lennium C. The towerg brick, stuc and ncrete temple seen at Bodh Gaya today pris a large primary straight-sid spire (Sanskr, shikhara), risg out of a central image chamber (Sanskr, garbha-griha). It is likely that some of the replis were built om the rellectns of pilgrims, if not on even small portable artworks and “mols” rried away om Bodh Gaya such as that shown mol of the temple at The Metropolan Mm of Art.

This replitn of Bodh Gaya the medieval and early morn perd Asia fds an earlier precent the acunt given the Sri Lankan chronicle (mahavamsa) which rerds how a branch of the Bodhi tree was brought to Sri Lanka and planted the cy of Anuradhapura the time of Kg Ashoka, where s scendant grows to this day.

Internatnal tert Bodh Gaya creased om the 1880s onwards, particularly after the Archaeologil Survey of India rtored and landsped much of the Mahabodhi Temple Complex. It is also important to note that Bodh Gaya neighbors the major Hdu pilgrimage town of Gaya: an ancient sacred center associated wh anctor r (Sanskr, shraddha).

It was ially orr to “reclaim Bodh Gaya for Buddhists” that the Sri Lankan-born Buddhist revivalist Anagarika Dharmapala tablished the Maha Bodhi Society Colombo, Sri Lanka, 1891. After a lengthy legal battle, the qutn of ownership of the Mahabodhi Temple Complex was partially rolved 1949 after the Indian Government assumed ntrol of the se for the State of Bihar and tablished the Bodh Gaya Temple Management Commtee (BTMC), which was posed of both Hdu and Buddhist members. While s new stat as “World Herage” brought ternatnal attentn and renown to Bodh Gaya, has also ed some ncern that the spirual and votnal character of Bodh Gaya will be altered and even that Bodh Gaya will be “mmized”—s built remas beg prerved at the expense of the range of sacred, votnal, and archectural practic that have characterized the place for more than 2, 000 years.
