Description

Those two young guy célébrate with all their family and friends their new life in the buddhism , by spécial céremony, go to temple for prying and have got the novicia 's way. The novice wear traditional Siddartha's clothes ( as the young buddha)

It is the most important duty of all Burmese parents to make sure their sons are admitted to the Buddhist Sangha by performing a shinbyu ceremony once they have reached the age of seven or older. A symbolic procession and ceremony of exchanging princely attire with that of an ascetic follows the example of the historical Buddha. He was born a royal prince called Siddartha Gautama, but left his palace on horse-back followed by his groom Chanda in search of the Four Noble Truths and to attain Nirvana, after he found out that life is made up of suffering (dukkha) and the notion of self is merely an illusion (anatta or non-self) when one day he saw the 'Four Great Signs' The old, the sick, the dead, and the ascetic - in the royal gardens
