After talking with his father, Buddha went to his wife. Yashodhara almost went crazy when she saw him. Of course, this man disappeared one night without even saying goodbye to her, without explaining anything.
She said:
“Why didn’t you explain, I would understand and wouldn’t interfere.” You didn't trust me.
And she began to cry. Just think: twelve years have passed!
Buddha apologized and said:
- This happened due to misunderstanding. I was ignorant, unaware. But now I realize. You helped me a lot. Let's forget the old things, now is not the time to think about the past. Look at me. Something important has happened. I have come and I want to tell you a lot.
The anger has subsided, the rage has gone. Yashodhara looked at him through her tears. Yes, this man has changed a lot. He was completely glowing from within, he was so peaceful, so quiet. His presence was elusive and at the same time filled the entire space. She looked into his eyes for a long time, and then fell at his feet and asked for dedication.
