This lesson tells us about the life of Gautama Buddha, who was born in a royal family as Siddhartha.  Once he saw a funeral procession and a monk begging for the alms. These sights moved him a lot and he decided to become a monk and started wandering in search of enlightenment.  He started meditation under a peepal tree and after seven days he got enlightenment and he became known as the Buddha (the Awakened or the Enlightened). He preached his first sermon at Benares.Once a woman came to him requesting to bring her dead son to life. Gautama Buddha asked the lady to bring a handful of mustard seeds from the house where there had been no death.  The lady moved from one house to another, but she could not find a single house where no one had lost a child, husband, parents, or friend.Then she came to know that death is common to all and is the ultimate truth.
