Life of Siddhartha Gautama and Birth of Buddha

Today is a great day for the entire world culture. Today, May 27, Prince Siddhartha Gautama was born. On the same day, but many years later, he'd had the enlightenment, and then Gautama Buddha came to the world to become a founder of one of the great religions. The same day the Buddha, completing his earthly affairs, departed this vale of sorrow and plunged into the eternal bliss of nirvana.

Siddhārtha Gautama, the son of the king of Shakya, was born on the territory of modern Nepal. Legend has it that night the king’s wife, Queen Maha Maya, had a dream in which a white elephant with 6 tusks entered her body from aside. After the baby had been born, seer Asita discovered 32 signs of a great man on his body (the wheel sign between the eyebrows as well as on the palms and on the feet; a protuberance on the top of his head, membranes between the fingers and so on). Having considered these signs the seer declared that the newly born child would become either an outstanding ruler or a renowned saint. The boy was named Siddhārtha Gautama (the word ‘Siddhārtha’ approximately equals ‘he who achieves his aim’).

Prague

Prague is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe still reminiscent of the medieval atmosphere. It is the place where Kafka and Doctor Faustus used to live, where you can meet some most unusual ghosts, where the clay golem was created and where statues are brought to life. The dishes here have very strange names and the variety of beer brands is great. The last Pneumatic tube of the city was at work here until recently and it is possible that the Summer Olympic Games will take place here in 2016 or 2020.

Cologne Cathedral

The first thing that strikes you when you look at the Cathedral is its size. It is impossible to see the building in full view, let alone camera objectives.

One of the biggest problems was the fact that the Cathedral didn’t fit into the camera frame. All the photos that show a panoramic view of the building were taken either from the other bank of the Rhine or from the air. The Cathedral suffered no damage during World War II - it was spared perhaps owing to the fact that it made a good reference point for the air force.
