What do people think of the pilgrimage to lumbini?
Well a pilgrimage is a very personal thing so I guess that is
what you are looking to hear about. One of the most interesting
aspects of a Buddhist pilgrimage is that the Buddha is said to have
taught that visiting the four main pilgrimage sites (Lumbinin,
Bodhgaya, Sarnath and Kushinagara) would be like meeting the Buddha
himself. In common with all knowledge, the pilgrimage can be
experienced on different levels. The motivation and mind that you
'bring' to pilgrimage will be reflected in how you experience the
sites. I personally enjoyed visiting Lumbini very much and hope to
have the opportunity to return when conditions permit.
