Описание: The First Biggest Europe Buddhist Pandol Depicting the story of
"PATACHARA".

Patacara was described as the beautiful daughter of a very wealthy merchant of Savatthi, in the Kosala Kingdom. Her previous name was Roopwati, the most beautiful girl in the whole town. Her over-protective parents used to love her dearly and provide her with every luxury.
She falls in love with one of her parents' servants Amarshanath, a young, good-looking, and innocent boy, who had a lower social status. Roopvati finds out that she is pregnant with Amarsh's child. She decides to elope secretly with him. both Amarsh and Roopwati secretly elope from the palace with some money and ornaments, and reach a small village, far away from the palace to lead a simple but happy life. Then they settle down in a hut of a farmer. And they lead a struggling life to earn bread, without any luxury but love each other very much. After a few years, Patacara became pregnant with her second child. she requested her husband to take her home to her parents and when he refused, she began the journey by herself, taking her son with her. Her husband followed. She went to labor and she asked her husband to find some shelter. A heavy storm had hit the place. He went to search for some wood where he was bitten by a poisonous snake and died instantly. Meanwhile, Patacara gave birth to her second son. The next morning, she found her husband lying dead, his body rigid. Distraught, she blamed herself for his death.She continued on her journey to Savatthi, but when she came to the river Aciravati, it was overflowing due to heavy rain. Unable to wade across with both children, she left the older child on the shore and carried the baby across to the other shore, before returning to take the first son. When she was midway through her return, a vulture swooped on the baby and flew off. Hearing his mother's screaming, the elder son believed Patacara was calling him and entered the water. He was swept off by the strong current. She had lost her husband and both children. She was devastated. Yet, she continued towards the city, in hope of meeting her parents. But on her way she was informed that her parents and brother had been killed after their house collapsed during the storm. Completely shattered and utterly depressed, Patacara becomes insane, and then she crazily starts to scream and undress. The people used to throw stones at her, called her a crazy woman, and tortured her, while nobody recognized who she was previously. She grew more aggressive and insane day by day. Whenever any sympathetic person used to try and cover her nude body with clothes, she used to tear those and scream at them. At that time the Buddha was staying at the Jetavana, Anathapindika's monastery. Patacara, after running through Savatthi naked and disconsolate, prostrated at the feet of the Buddha, describing her family tragedies. The Buddha explained this using Buddhist doctrines, and Patacara immediately understood the nature of impermanence.
