About Skinny body before Buddha .As the Buddha was going around in the Bhikkhus forest, he entered the Vedas monk and the Udhaaks monk, meditating on the Dhamma, and, having received the worldly knowledge of the world, did not yet attain the asceticism. Then he was thought to have lost his meditation under the tree, and he was ate by the fruit that fell only under the tree. Then he thought he was going to lose his meditation, and he thought he would not eat at all. But the spirits said that if he did not eat, he would donate the spirit food. As a result of this great effort, the body, like the golden figure of the Buddha, became pale and dehydrated. There was no more blood, but only bones and skin. It is difficult to be this buddha. The Buddha had practiced the occult for six years, but he did not become the buddha. Then he ate the food and re-joined it. As a result, the skin soon grows stronger and the skin is restored.

Sightseeing in Mandalay

I had this full day sightseeing in Mandalay yesterday and it was perfect! I would highly recommend to anyone that has no much time available to explore Mandalay. You can visit all the main attractions in one day, finishing with the astonishing sunset at Mandalay Hill.

Mandalay Highlights!

Despite communication mixup our day was wonderful. To be clear, this is a low budget day tour without a guide but rather only a driver. Ours was excellent with just enough English to briefly explain what we were visiting. The wholesale jade market was exceptional - raw capitalism at work. The other sights and sounds were truly remarkable. Lunch was good and cheap! Great value for money- especially recommended for first time visitors.
