Trong các kinh điển Phật giáo sơ kỳ—như Nikāya và Āgama—Đức Phật thường nhắc đến những loài động vật sinh sống trong rừng sâu, núi cao và sông ngòi của Ấn Độ cổ đại. Rất nhiều loài vật như voi, sư tử, hươu, rùa, ngựa, chim chóc và nhiều loài khác xuất hiện trong những lời dạy này; chúng không hiện diện như những sinh vật hung dữ hay đáng sợ, mà là những người bạn hiền trí, giúp chúng ta thấu hiểu cách sống với lòng từ bi, sự dũng cảm và tâm trí sáng suốt.

Buddhism in Nepal has a rich and profound history that dates back to the time of the Buddha himself. Nepal, particularly the Kathmandu Valley, has long been a significant center for both Tibetan and Theravada Buddhism. Not only is Nepal the birthplace of the Buddha (in Lumbini), but it is also a region where Buddhist spiritual traditions have flourished for centuries. In this special edition, I focus specifically on Nepalese Buddhism. I explore the historical significance of this ancient tradition, shedding light on the invaluable Buddhist sites scattered across the country. This edition features articles on the history of Nepalese Buddhism, the contributions of revered senior monks, and insights from contemporary Nepalese monks and nuns. “Mettavalokanaya” International Buddhist Magazine is a registered publication in Sri Lanka, with an international standard. Distributed worldwide free of charge, it has reached 50 countries. The online edition enjoys a readership of over 500,000

Bhikkhunis” Proudly Presents to Highest Bhikkhuni Sasana…. According to Buddhist scriptures, the order of Bhikkhunis was first created by the Buddha at the specific request of His Aunt and Foster - Mother “Mahapajapati Gotami”, who became the first ordained Bhikkhuni. During the time of Buddha, the First Bhikkhuni ordination took place in the fifth year after the Buddha’s Enlightenment. The Buddha’s words were “I allow Nuns to be ordained by Monks”. Following Buddha’s instructions, “Mettavalokanaya” - Sri Lankan’s Most Popular & Leading Monthly International Buddhist Magazine decided starting their second and newly magazine & website specially for whole Bhikkhunis (Nuns) in the world. This is the World’s First Time, and this is the First International Bhikkhunis Magazine & Website.
