2. March for Life forms- due next time

4. Scenes from "The Little Buddha"

  • Baby is born
  • Life of Buddha- formerly named Siddartha
  • He is made king- but he goes to help people out who are suffering. A man died and he witnesses him being burned 
  • He learns about suffering and compassion. He questions his Dad and his Dad wants him detained
  • Buddha abandons his family
  • a snake protects him from the rain- people who witness this become his disciples 
  • He says "if you are too tight then you will snap, if you are too loose you will never get anywhere. We need to be in the middle"- people ignore him and he makes a bowl float upstream
  • The children are tested under the tree
HW: March for Life forms
