Discovery of the Sal grove of the Malla's where the Buddha died. "Ga Hawa mai"temple.This video is of the "Gah Hawa Mai" temple that marks the spot of the Sal grove where the Buddha died. People will be surprised at the name "Gah Hawa Mai." According to Huen Tsang when the Buddha died his dead mother heard about it in heaven. She came as a ghostly figure and wept over the dead body. In the local language ghosts are called 'wind.' So the Buddhas ghostly mother came like the wind. "Hawa" means wind and "Mai" means mother. Put together "Gah Hawa Mai" means the ghostly mother who was like the wind. Today the temple is a Durga temple. After Buddhism got wiped out, there was a void and people didn't understand the name. Since it had a female name they dedicated it to Goddess Durga. Unfortunately for this area Goddess Durga isn't ancient. She has her origins in West Bengal and came to these parts with Bengali white collared jobbed people and the railways. This temple is certainly on a stupa and is accurately positioned by Huen Tsang. It is 2 kilometers north of the Sirsiya river and to its north is "Murli" chowk (crossroads). Murli means turn here. In Buddhist scriptures they carried the Buddhas body north and turned east to Khutwajabdi. where they burnt it. That means they turned east at Murli chowk which means "turn". So everything about "Gah Hawa mai" temple proves it is the place the Buddha died.
