A los dieciséis años de edad, después de demostrar su destreza en una competición de armas, el príncipe Siddhartha se casó con su hermosa prima Yasodhara. Pronto se volvió pensativo y preocupado, pero el momento decisivo de su vida no le llegó hasta la edad de veintinueve años, cuando emprendió cuatro viajes, los cuales, a su vez, presentaron las cuatro visiones pasajeras. | |||
First he encountered a very old man, gray and decrepit, leaning on a staff; second, a pitiful one racked with disease, lying in the road; third, a corpse; and fourth, a yellow-robed monk with shaved head and a begging bowl. Much moved with compassion by the first three sights, he realized that life was subject to old age, disease, and death. The fourth sight signified to him the possibility of overcoming these conditions and inspired him to leave the world he knew in order to find a solution for suffering. | First he encountered a very old man, gray and decrepit, leaning on a staff; second, a pitiful one racked with disease, lying in the road; third, a corpse; and fourth, a yellow-robed monk with shaved head and a begging bowl.
