Once Ananda, the Buddha's personal attendant, asked the Buddha how followers in Savatthi could show reverence to him while He was away. The Buddha answered that the great Bodhi tree was a suitable object of reverence. Moggallana, one of the chief disciples, brought back a seed from Buddhagaya. Anathapindika planted it. According to tradition, this tree still stands today. | ||
