🔍 THE SON BUDDHA LEFT BEHIND — THE PRICE OF ENLIGHTENMENT
What happened to Rāhula, the Buddha’s son—the child born on the night Siddhartha walked away? When Siddhartha Gautama left his palace to seek enlightenment, he abandoned his newborn son Rāhula, a child he literally named "Fetter" or "Chain." This is the untold story of Buddhism's first child monk, the boy who waited seven years for his father to return, only to be forced into monk's robes at age seven. Rāhula's journey from abandoned prince to enlightened monk reveals the hidden cost of Buddha's path to enlightenment.
