Added on August 20, 2010, 4:21 pmAt that time, the Tathagata, who was sitting on his throne, intending to explain a teaching of the Total-Retention Dharani, was along with innumerable Bodhisattva-Mahasattvas, whose names are: Dharani King Bodhisattva, Treasure King Bodhisattva, Bhaisajya-Raja(Medicine King) Bodhisattva, Bhaisajya-Samudgata(Medicine Superior) Bodhisattva, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, Maha-stamaprapta(Great Strength) Bodhisattva, Avatamsaka Bodhisattva, Great Sublime Bodhisattva, Precious Deposits Bodhisattva, Virtue Store Bodhisattva, Vajragarbha Bodhisattva, Akasagarbha(Space Store) Bodhisattva, Maitreya Bodhisattva, Samantabhadra(Universal Goodness) Bodhisattva, Manjusri Bodhisattva, and so on. Such Bodhisattva-Mahasattvas are all great Dharma-Princes who had been empowered through their crowns (Abhiseka).

Buddha just found the middle way and lay it out to all so that we can in turn or in time achieve Buddhahood.
That's all.

Probably a few billion Kalpa times perhaps?
Cool I never knew about the harp.
I only know of the girl giving him milk and one kind of food.
That also he is willing to take it after he realised that not having anything to the extreme does not work.
Interesting part is when he starts to meditate and he is surrounded by gods, bodhisvattas, and the others.

QUOTE(zstan @ Aug 20 2010, 05:04 PM) what u mean they haven achieve? they are no longer in the samsara cycle la. Boddhisvattas haven't attain the ultimate enlightenment yet what. Cannot go nirvana la. Added on August 20, 2010, 5:07 pmQUOTE(Misteri2010 @ Aug 20 2010, 05:06 PM) why not even boddhisvattas count as achieving nirvana? I think if u guy never really understand about buddha better dun talk about buddha...u are trying to spoil the religion Constructive criticism and discussion is vital to understand more. =) QUOTE(gooni3 @ Aug 20 2010, 05:06 PM) no unker.. bodhisattvas are not in nirvana stage cuz they choose to have compassion and help ppl.. nirvana u do not have any emotions already Yeap.

Also, that's why Avalokitesvara still remains a bodhisvatta as he vouched not to be enlightened until everyone else does.
