00:30Gajra Kottari, Prakash Kapadia, Puneet S. Shukla
00:40Director V. Tavan Puranik, Director B. K. Modi
00:50With the participation of the actors Himanshu Soni as the Crown Prince of Buddha,
01:01Kabir Bedi as King Atida, Samir Tamati Kari as the King of Pune,
01:09Deepika Upatiye as the Queen of Maya,
01:14Gengen Uprari as the Empress Basabade,
01:21Kachan Chahin as Princess Jayudala,
01:25Chagat Singh as Deba Dada, Sanket Choksi as Sanak,
01:31Sitath and Sudev as Hock Phan, King of Pune,
01:37and other actors.
01:41I made a promise to King Bimbisara of Magadha
01:46that when I found the truth, I would share it with him.
01:57Why are there so many people?
01:59After Gajra became a monk,
02:02his friends also decided to become monks.
02:06The road in front of me is like a small stream.
02:11Many small streams will merge into a big river if they want to become monks.
02:18You are my first disciples.
02:22Please guide them.
02:25But the details of life are still long.
02:36The King of Pune
02:45Come in.
02:49If you want to be a good monk,
02:51you must shave your hair first.
02:56The King of Pune
03:02Put on your clothes.
03:05Turn around.
03:08Turn to your right.
03:16Now, the first disciples of the Buddha will show you the way.
03:21Before you receive the proof,
03:23kneel on the ground.
03:26Anyone can receive the proof,
03:28but for you, this is the proof of the Buddha.
03:34When you hear the Buddha's words,
03:36you must sit in a lotus-like position, with your arms open.
03:40I, the Buddha,
03:43I, the Buddha,
03:52I, the Buddha,
04:03I, the Buddha,
04:14I, the Buddha,
04:28When we receive the proof,
04:30all the disciples are allowed to leave.
04:34In the group of disciples,
04:36you can show the people who want to leave,
04:40those who want to leave, but cannot come here.
04:43You can prove to them,
04:46in their village,
04:48in their house,
04:50in front of the eyes of their friends and relatives,
04:54that they have become monks.
04:57You have to imitate the morality of life.
05:01What we call teaching,
05:03is not for others to see,
05:06but for ourselves to see.
05:20Here, teachers,
05:23today, we have a heavy responsibility on our shoulders.
05:28That is to bring about the liberation of the human race.
05:32Today, let us say goodbye to each other here.
05:37Each of you, choose your own path.
05:41Whose path do you choose?
05:44The path of high morality,
05:46which I have proven to myself and taught to the teachers.
05:51Let us take what we have learned,
05:53and pass it on to others.
06:02Thank you.
06:20Your Majesty, it is late.
06:25Why hasn't Nanda come back yet?
06:27Nanda hasn't come back yet?
06:32If we don't allow him to go out alone,
06:35we will have to follow him everywhere.
06:40I have lost a child.
06:46Your Majesty, don't say that.
06:51Your son,
06:53will definitely make your heart tremble.
06:59That's right.
07:03He can stay at my house as my successor.
07:11But he has to go.
07:14He wants to teach the whole world.
07:19Now, I just want to give him a second chance.
07:22Don't. Just once.
07:25This wine, this wine,
07:29this wine, this wine,
07:35Nanda!
07:46That's enough.
07:49Where are you taking him to?
07:53To find the nuns.
07:57To go to the temple, Your Majesty.
08:02Is that a place for a child like you to go?
08:06Don't, mother.
08:08I'm still a child who doesn't understand.
08:11It's because of Devadatta who taught him.
08:14Devadatta taught him.
08:17He didn't learn anything good from him.
08:19Hey!
08:21Where did you get the courage to blame me,
08:23Lady Yasodhara?
08:27Your Majesty,
08:29I don't force anyone to do what they don't like.
08:35Absolutely not.
08:37That's right, Your Majesty.
08:39That's what I want to do.
08:43I'm an adult now.
08:45I know what I need to do.
08:48Really?
08:51Do you think you're an adult now?
08:53That's right, mother.
08:54I'm an adult now.
08:55I also know that
08:57you always love Devadatta more than me.
09:03Your Majesty,
09:05how can you not allow Nanda to go to the temple?
09:11That temple was built by you.
09:14Devadatta built it.
09:18Am I right?
09:23You want Devadatta to find a woman
09:26to make fun of
09:28to enjoy life.
09:33So now you try to tell me.
09:38Why?
09:40Why is Siddhartha's brother
09:42not allowed to go there?
09:44Why?
09:45Devadatta,
09:46don't say anything more.
09:48At least...
09:49Lady Yasodhara,
09:52I just want to say
09:56I feel so sorry for Nanda.
10:00He's been abandoned
10:03since he was a baby.
10:07Why?
10:09Why?
10:10Nanda, you're right.
10:15In the past, Siddhartha was happy when he went to the temple.
10:18But when it's your turn,
10:20why are you so rude to me?
10:25When I was a child,
10:27I lacked the love of my parents.
10:30My parents' heart
10:32was all for Siddhartha.
10:37I'm not a child anymore.
10:40Now my parents have to let me live my own life.
10:48Nanda,
10:50don't go, Nanda.
11:11Mom,
11:14it's not Nanda's fault.
11:17It's Devadatta's fault.
11:25I can't believe it.
11:28How could he say those hurtful words to my parents?
11:34How could he think like that?
11:37I tried to do my duty as a father.
11:45But...
11:56You...
11:57You followed this girl here, didn't you?
12:00Did you see a girl running that way?
12:04No, I didn't.
12:05What happened?
12:06She's a prostitute.
12:07She was drunk last night.
12:09We were all drunk.
12:11We found out that all the money was lost.
12:14Was there a reason?
12:17We want to take her back to Varanasi.
12:24So she's been a burden to you.
12:28And you still blame her?
12:31Are you kidding me?
12:33We only care about gold.
12:35We don't have time to care about her.
12:39Everything is lost.
12:41We can't find it.
12:42You've never seen so much money in your life.
12:46To be honest,
12:47she drove us all crazy.
12:50She seduced us.
12:52Otherwise, nothing would have happened.
12:54She's still stealing your property.
12:59She stole all your property before.
13:03And now she's stealing yours.
13:08Answer me.
13:10At this very moment,
13:12is she sad because of you?
13:15Are you sad because of her?
13:17Why would she be sad?
13:20Then why are you sad?
13:22Is that right?
13:23She stole your property before.
13:28You took her back.
13:31You punished her.
13:32But in the future,
13:35at this very moment,
13:37why are you chasing her?
13:43You're carrying the weight of the past.
13:46You're trying to change an unknown future.
13:49That's the moment
13:51you lose your present.
13:57You're right.
13:59What if we live in the present?
14:02Then you can recognize yourself.
14:05You can recognize the things
14:07that make you suffer.
14:10Can you recognize yourself?
14:12What if we recognize ourselves?
14:18Let me borrow your flute.
14:22Can you play the flute?
14:52How many years have passed?
14:55How many years have passed?
14:58How many years have passed?
15:01How many years have passed?
15:04How many years have passed?
15:07How many years have passed?
15:11How many years have passed?
15:15How many years have passed?
15:20How many years have passed?
15:24This is the first time I play the flute.
15:29But the sound of the flute is better than before.
15:36I recognize myself.
15:39If you want to play the flute,
15:41don't pay too much attention to the flute.
15:44Don't pay too much attention to the flute.
15:48Focus on yourself.
16:10Can you teach me how to play the flute?
16:15I want to find myself.
16:18Can you recognize me as your disciple?
16:22But I have to take away your arrogance.
16:28Om
16:44Svaha
16:46Svaha
16:48Svaha
16:50Svaha
16:52Svaha
16:54Svaha
16:56Svaha
17:01Svaha
17:03Svaha
17:05Svaha
17:07The Great Buddha
17:13The Great Buddha
17:19The Great Buddha
17:25Look at the bright body on your face.
17:29Your name must be very beautiful.
17:32My name is Siddhartha Gautama.
17:35Oh, you are the one who claimed that there is no Buddha statue here.
17:42I have never said that there is no Buddha statue.
17:46I have never said that there is a Buddha statue.
17:49Tomorrow morning, we will continue to talk about the island.
17:53It is late now.
17:55Tonight, you should think about this forest.
17:58Please.
18:01The owner of this forest is...
18:04This forest belongs to me.
18:07There are also my disciples.
18:10I am Uruvela Kassaba.
18:14I have heard of your name.
18:17You are Uruvela Kassaba,
18:20the one who provides shelter for the soldiers in the rainy season, right?
18:26For the time being, you should take a rest in my tent.
18:36Please.
18:40After the meditation, we will take a rest.
18:45If you allow me,
18:48can I sleep in that tent tonight?
18:53Master, there is a poisonous snake in that tent.
18:56It stays there forever.
18:58If it bites you, I don't know what to do.
19:01Don't worry.
19:04I will take a rest there.
19:15Master, please stop him.
19:18He doesn't want to stay there.
19:21He has made up his mind.
20:22Uruvela Kassaba
20:35My friend, please go back to your forest.
20:40It is not safe for you here.
20:45Although you don't bite people,
20:50sometimes you are in danger of death.
20:55Uruvela Kassaba
21:19Why are you sitting here?
21:22Today I told my disciples
21:26that I don't know where you are.
21:29I don't want to stay there forever.
21:33Why?
21:40You are teaching your disciples.
21:44If I put a problem in front of your disciples,
21:49shouldn't I make it difficult for you?
21:55There are only two of us now.
21:59You can say whatever you want.
22:02I have told you a few things about suffering.
22:07Do you think suffering is real?
22:13Do you also believe that there is a cause for suffering?
22:18That's right.
22:20If there is a cause for suffering,
22:24then when that cause ends,
22:27there is no more suffering.
22:30It's like the sun can go down for four nights.
22:34I believe everything you say is true.
22:38It's just my personal experience.
22:42These theories are not recorded in the Dharma system.
22:47You said that there is a path
22:50that leads us to liberation,
22:53to observe our own wisdom,
22:56and to go deeper into the Heavens,
22:59so that we can understand ourselves and all sentient beings.
23:03But I have a question.
23:06Do the doctrines of Buddhism,
23:09such as the Buddha,
23:11have any meaning?
23:18If someone wants to go to the other side of the river,
23:24what should they do?
23:26I think that if the water is too deep,
23:31they can't cross it.
23:34And if the water is too deep,
23:37they have to row or swim across the river.
23:41If he doesn't want to cross the river,
23:45doesn't want to swim across the river,
23:48or doesn't want to row across the river,
23:51then he can only pray to the Holy Spirit.
23:55When he prays like that,
23:57will the other side of the river appear under his feet?
24:00We call them fools.
24:03It's the same thing.
24:05If a person uses his wisdom,
24:08uses his voice, and uses his mind,
24:11how can he not find the path to liberation?
24:15If he only prays to the Holy Spirit,
24:19he will be stuck there forever.
24:23He will not be able to get out of the river.
24:28I have read a lot of sutras,
24:31and I have learned a lot from many teachers.
24:34But no one has ever used simple words and forms
24:37to show the true meaning of life.
24:41In the past, no one did.
24:44You still lead people towards a meaningless truth.
24:49You are so selfish.
24:52You are so foolish.
24:55You have to admit that you are your own disciple.
24:59I have read a lot of sutras,
25:02and I have learned a lot from many teachers.
25:06But no one has ever led people towards a meaningless truth.
25:11You are so selfish.
25:14You have to admit that you are your own disciple.
25:18You have to admit that you are your own disciple.
25:22You have to admit that you are your own disciple.
25:26Today, we pray to the Buddha.
25:30Today, we pray to the Buddha.
25:33Today, we pray to the Buddha.
25:37Time is like water.
25:40You are the boat that takes us across the ocean of suffering.
25:47Master, there is really no system left.
25:50It is really lawless.
25:52The Buddha has a few methods.
25:55He thinks he is Buddha.
25:58He thinks he is Buddha.
26:01He thinks he is Buddha.
26:04His power is not small.
26:06His disciples have joined the group of the other boat.
26:12This is not good.
26:15He doesn't believe in the Buddha.
26:17He thinks that all the sutras are fake.
26:20He doesn't believe in the Buddha.
26:23He doesn't believe in the Buddha.
26:25He doesn't believe in the Buddha.
26:27He doesn't believe in the Buddha.
26:30The day is coming.
26:32That's right, Master.
26:34He has given the Dharma to all the people of Magadha.
26:38He said that only with the help of compassion and suffering
26:42can we achieve tranquility in the soul.
26:45He wants to awaken the wisdom of the people.
26:48Master, the power of this Buddha is great.
26:52If he continues to do so,
26:55sooner or later he will destroy us all.
26:58The Dharma will be destroyed.
27:00That's right.
27:01No.
27:03I won't let him do that.
27:07The King of Magadha will listen to us.
27:12I will take the Buddha's head
27:16and hang it in front of the gate of Magadha for the people to see.
27:22The King of Magadha will take the Buddha's head.
27:27The King of Magadha will take the Buddha's head.
27:47Your Majesty,
27:49there is a storm that has destroyed everything in front of us.
27:54There is a storm that has destroyed the Dharma and our society.
28:02Who is it?
28:04What is the name of the storm?
28:06A deceiver.
28:08He didn't believe in the Buddha
28:11and didn't believe in the Dharma.
28:14He wandered around the world,
28:16loving the people of Magadha as his disciples.
28:20He must have some illness.
28:23But he didn't do anything wrong.
28:26The wall is made of iron.
28:28It can't be blown down by a small storm like this.
28:31Your Majesty,
28:34this is not a normal storm.
28:37He is challenging the rule of our kingdom.
28:41You need to consider this.
28:44This is a rebellion.
28:47If he really dares to rebel,
28:50he must be punished.
28:52What is his name?
28:57Your Majesty,
28:59your friend is waiting for you outside the palace.
29:02His disciples are also waiting for you.
29:04Is Siddhartha Gautama here?
29:07Your Majesty,
29:09Your Majesty,
29:10it's time for your precious treasure.
29:22Your Majesty,
29:24Your Majesty,
29:26it's time for your precious treasure.
29:42Your Majesty,
29:44he doesn't want to come out to welcome you.
29:47It's too romantic.
29:52It's too romantic.
30:22I promised you.
30:24Now I keep my promise.
30:26I'm back.
30:28I know.
30:30You never kept your promise.
30:33But you are no longer my friend.
30:36But you are no longer my friend.
30:39Who are you?
30:41The young men of Uruvela village
30:44said that I had achieved enlightenment.
30:47So they called me Buddha.
30:50So they called me Buddha.
30:57Wonderful.
31:01Buddha.
31:04Buddha.
31:07Buddha.
31:11Now I call you Buddha.
31:16The change from Siddhartha to Buddha
31:19is beyond my imagination.
31:22You have brought light and peace.
31:25You have brought light and peace.
31:28Your wonderful nature
31:31is like the high sound of the flute.
31:34You have proved your invincible truth.
31:38I have changed the world,
31:40I have changed the world,
31:43but I still feel ashamed.
31:45If you think like that,
31:48it's not right.
31:50In the beginning,
31:52you used your mind to observe me.
31:55Thanks to that, you have realized
31:58that we can be like friends.
32:01Now,
32:03you use your mind to observe me.
32:07Your mind can't tell
32:10what is different between you and me.
32:16The universe
32:19and a fool like me
32:22are different from the sky and the earth.
32:26The earth is our base,
32:29and the sky
32:31gives us a free space.
32:35Our bodies are all in there.
32:39If so, what is the difference?
32:43Do you believe in Buddhism
32:46or in morality?
32:48Aren't they the same thing?
32:51That's right.
32:53The goal of morality
32:55is to guide people to the right path.
32:58The hell makes people afraid
33:00and distinguishes right from wrong.
33:03Buddhism is not like that.
33:05So what is Buddhism?
33:07How can it be called the unparalleled truth?
33:10You can only experience it yourself,
33:13understand yourself,
33:15and realize who you are.
33:18You don't have to think.
33:20You don't have to speak.
33:22You just need to feel
33:24and keep neutral.
33:27When you understand these things,
33:30you will no longer realize
33:33the existence of things.
33:35What is the difference?
33:37The weather changes.
33:39The leaves wither.
33:42Can we feel that?
33:45Of course.
33:47Wisdom is everywhere.
33:51In the sky,
33:53in the moon,
33:54in the stars,
33:55in the Milky Way.
33:58Everyone can enjoy
34:00that unparalleled truth.
34:05Can you accept me as your disciple?
34:09Of course.
34:21I am grateful to you.
34:24Now is the full moon.
34:26I offer you
34:28and the monks here
34:31my condolences.
34:39Why don't you say anything?
34:42What he said
34:45is full of charm.
34:48It is very simple.
34:50I can see that you are mesmerized.
34:52Not me.
34:54It is Bimbisara.
34:57He is mesmerized by Buddha.
35:00He only knows how to
35:02hold his ears quietly
35:04and listen.
35:06He is like
35:08a child.
35:11He has fallen into the abyss of society.
35:14Her Majesty totally trusts him.
35:16At this point,
35:17we can't
35:19close our eyes.
35:21Master,
35:23it is not that serious.
35:25Her Majesty Bimbisara
35:27worships Buddha.
35:31She also invites him
35:33and his disciples
35:35to eat with her.
35:38Master,
35:40you should take care
35:42of your position.
35:44If you are not careful,
35:46the Buddha will
35:48make you
35:50lose your position.
35:53Her Majesty Bimbisara
35:55doesn't listen to Buddha anymore.
35:59That Buddha
36:01spread the Dharma
36:03and freed the people.
36:05To us,
36:07he is the wisest of all.
36:10The Dharma is set by us.
36:13Our Balaamon
36:15is the source of the truth.
36:17Without our knowledge,
36:19there is no meaning
36:21in the secular world.
36:23Our Dharma
36:25is more precious than the kingdom.
36:27The people can
36:29get what they want
36:31because of our Dharma.
36:33The people of Dalaam
36:35have the opportunity
36:37to enjoy the Dharma.
36:39This way of society
36:41has been going on for thousands of years.
36:43However,
36:45a despicable person
36:47like Siddhartha Gautama
36:49has risen up
36:51to a higher level.
36:53Master,
36:55what should we do
36:57with our Dharma?
36:59What about our future Dharma?
37:01We are the Dharma.
37:05Our enemy
37:07is our Majesty.
37:11We only have one way
37:13to find
37:15our enemy
37:17another enemy.
37:21The political affairs
37:23are not the business
37:25of Balaamon.
37:27But now,
37:29we don't know
37:31what to do.
37:33We have to protect
37:35our Dharma.
37:37We have to arrange
37:39a loyal dog
37:41to watch over
37:43our Dharma.
37:45We only need
37:47one person
37:49who is loyal
37:51and selfless.
37:53He can't stand
37:55anything against us.
37:57He has the power
37:59and authority.
38:01Even if he is the Majesty,
38:03he has to stay in our hands.
38:05Is there such a person?
38:07No.
38:09There is only one person.
38:11After the death
38:13of that person,
38:15that person
38:17will bring glory
38:19to his father,
38:21the Crown Prince Achatsatu,
38:23the son of the Majesty
38:25Bimbisara.
38:31His name
38:33means hostility.
38:35He is also the enemy
38:37of his father,
38:39the enemy of our enemy,
38:41Achatsatu.
38:47Achatsatu.
39:17Your Majesty,
39:19the Majesty wants to see you.
39:21Why does he want to see me?
39:25He wants me to meet Buddha, doesn't he?
39:33He wants to meet that devil
39:35who is the leader of the Dao.
39:37I don't know what the Majesty is thinking.
39:39Tell the Majesty that I won't come.
39:47Hmph.
40:05The sun is still rising in the east,
40:07isn't it?
40:09I didn't expect that on one side,
40:11the Majesty asked me to meet Buddha,
40:13and on the other side,
40:15he asked himself to meet me.
40:17Your Majesty,
40:19I'm not used to
40:21holding a sword,
40:23but I really like
40:25to admire your talent.
40:27In the past,
40:29my sword has never had an opponent.
40:31Your Majesty,
40:33your courage
40:35is unparalleled.
40:37So you come here
40:39to insult me
40:41or are you afraid of me?
40:45Your Majesty,
40:47everyone
40:49is waiting for you.
40:51Why?
40:53My father, Yubinbisara,
40:55is still there.
40:57He is proud of his talent.
40:59The people support him
41:01and treat him fairly.
41:03Your Majesty,
41:05looking at what the Majesty is doing now,
41:07I know that Magadha's land,
41:09even the city
41:11Rajagaha,
41:13is difficult to maintain.
41:17What do you mean?
41:19The heaven and hell
41:21are in motion.
41:23What are you waiting for?
41:25Are you talking about Buddha?
41:27That's right, Buddha,
41:29a revolutionary like the Majesty Bimbisara,
41:31who is still fascinated by him.
41:33The Majesty is not fascinated
41:35by such people.
41:37In my opinion,
41:39the situation is not very good, Your Majesty.
41:41The Majesty is already fascinated by Buddha.
41:43If it continues like this,
41:45then our Dharma
41:47will be destroyed
41:49if his Dharma
41:51is spread all over the place.
41:53So where is our
41:55Balaamon's land?
41:57Your Majesty, you don't have to think too much.
41:59Your Majesty, what are you talking about?
42:01When Ambabali just appeared,
42:03Your Majesty had to suffer a lot.
42:07Your Majesty,
42:09the kingdom is already
42:11in a state of chaos.
42:13What about Buddha?
42:15If Your Majesty
42:17doesn't stop him from practicing,
42:19then where is the kingdom's law?
42:23There are four kings,
42:25but no one is afraid of us.
42:27We can't
42:29let him kill himself.
42:31On the king's birthday,
42:33Magadha's territory
42:35can't just be
42:37destroyed like this.
42:39I'm also very worried about this.
42:41Who can turn this situation around?
42:43A low-born
42:45and a great
42:47warrior.
42:49There is no one
42:51more powerful than you.
42:53Then I agree with you.
43:03Magadha's territory
43:05is as wide as four trees.
43:07I will definitely make it into the kingdom.
43:09And later,
43:11other countries have to submit to me.
43:13I will share
43:15my kingdom
43:17with the Balaamons.
43:35Don't trust anyone.
43:37Whether it's a religious text
43:39or the words of a great
43:41person,
43:43as long as they
43:45don't meet the standards
43:47of your intellect and wisdom.
44:05Thank you for watching.
