South Africa (AP) — South Africa has unveiled a gigantic statue of
anti-apartheid fighter Nelson Mandela to cheers and singing at the Union
Buildings in its capital.The mood was joyous Monday in Pretoria
as a military band played and fighter jets flew overhead to honor
Mandela after 10 days of mourning over his death ended Sunday with his
burial.President Jacob Zuma
presided over the unveiling, which preceded a party in celebration of
the Day of Reconciliation, a national holiday.The statue stands
on the grounds of the Union Buildings, where Mandela delivered his
inaugural speech after becoming South Africa's first black president in
1994.The buildings had been a hated symbol of the apartheid regime to many South Africans.Mandela was buried Sunday at his ancestral home in the village of Qunu.
Buddha's birthplace brings light to Nepal

The discovery of the
world's earliest Buddhist temple, marking the birthplace of the Buddha
south of the Himalayas in Nepal, could give a powerful push in the drive
to lift nearby villagers out of crushing poverty. Visits by some of the world's 500 million Buddhists to this holy site near Nepal's border with India could
help the region create a framework for sustainable development linked
to these pilgrimages, said scholars involved in the discovery.Archaeologists recently revealed they
had uncovered a wooden structure, surrounded by an open-air courtyard,
that dated from 2,550 years ago and was situated directly beneath a
brick temple built three centuries later to venerate the birth of the
Buddha. The uncovering of the long-buried
shrine and courtyard, believed to have hosted the tree under which the
Buddha was born, provides the clearest evidence ever of when Prince
Siddhartha Gautama walked the Earth and began outlining his pathway
toward enlightenment and Nirvana. The earliest Buddhist chronicles all
record that Queen Maya Devi gave birth to the Buddha in the mystical
Lumbini Garden, but none provides a clear-cut date for the event.British archaeologist Robin Coningham,
who led the international team that excavated the structure, said in an
interview that there is a good reason for conflicting chronologies of
the Buddha's birth and life: "Writing in South Asia didn't really spread
until about 300 BC." That means details of the Buddha's life and
teachings were passed down orally for centuries before being written
down.

That led to present-day estimates on the Buddha's birth that have varied between 800 BC and 400 BC, he said. But now, the discovery of the earliest
shrine at Lumbini, and the use of leading-edge dating technologies to
calculate its age, have led Coningham and his team to determine the
temple was built around 550 BC. "Ritual activity [at the shrine] could
have commenced either during or shortly after the life of the Buddha,"
Coningham and nine other scholars state in an article published in the
December issue of the British journal Antiquity. Remarkable find Unveiling evidence confirming key
details of the Buddha's nativity narrative and timing might ultimately
be rated as one of the century's most remarkable archaeological finds.Barbara Moffet, a spokesperson at the
National Geographic Society, which helped support the excavation of what
could be the world's very first Buddhist shrine, said, "It's not every day that we discover something that opens a window on the birth of a major world religion." The Washington, DC-based group filmed key discoveries made during the unearthing of the shrine, and will broadcast a documentary, "Buried Secrets of the Buddha" in February on National Geographic Channel. Coningham, a professor at Durham University in the United Kingdom,
said as archaeologists from Britain and Nepal set out to explore the
ancient shrine at the center of Lumbini's Sacred Garden, an unending
stream of Buddhist monks and nuns from around the world circumambulated
the site, chanting prayers over the emerging temple.He spent three years excavating the
Lumbini shrine, which had been buried beneath an entire sequence of
later temples, working alongside some of Nepal's leading archaeologists,
headed by Kosh Prasad Acharya, former Director General of the
Department of Archaeology in Nepal.Finding new pieces in the puzzle of the origins of Buddhism 25 centuries ago via this simple wooden temple marks "a really important finding in the study of Buddhist archaeology," said archaeologist Keir Strickland, who co-authored the study, "The earliest Buddhist shrine: excavating the birthplace of the Buddha, Lumbini (Nepal)."In Lumbini, you can already see monasteries that have been built by
Japan, China, Myanmar, and Cambodia ... The government of Nepal wants to
develop Lumbini as a centre of peace.
- Ram Prasad Subedi, Embassy of Nepal in Beijing
Professor Coningham said he hopes the
reemergence of this temple will benefit not only Buddhist scholars and
followers across the globe, but also the present-day compatriots of the
Buddha – villagers who toil the fields amid the amazing topography of
Nepal and the punishing poverty born of living in such a remote
location."In the area around Lumbini," he said, "more than half the population lives on less than one and one-half dollars per day." The International Monetary Fund estimated
Nepal's per capita GDP at US$522 in 2010, and only 9 percent of its 30
million citizens are now plugged into the Internet, according to the
Internet World Stats website. Sacred sites Painting new details on the mosaic of
the Buddha's origins could give momentum to a UNESCO plan, being
financed by the Japanese government, to simultaneously promote further
archaeological explorations around Lumbini, conserve sacred sites that
are being uncovered, and liberate nearby villagers from the shackles of
impoverishment."It should be possible to balance sustainable pilgrimage with sustainable conservation" as part of a master plan that benefits the region as a whole, Coningham explained. Hundreds of thousands of Buddhist
monks, nuns, and tourists now make the pilgrimage to Lumbini's
mandala-like matrix of sacred sites every year, and that figure could
rise rapidly over the next decade as the area raises its global profile.To pave the way for the rise of the
Buddha's birthplace in the world atlas of Buddhist pilgrimage sites, the
Asian Development Bank has provided nearly $90 million in funding to
expand Lumbini's roadways and airport. "This is a positive move," Coningham said, for the people of Nepal, which is landlocked between the giants China and India.Govinda Gewali, who is monitoring the
project from the ADB office in Nepal, said the runway at Lumbini's
Gautam Buddha Airport will be extended to accommodate international
flights, which will allow more of the world's half-billion Buddhists to
tour the site.This expansion is slated for
completion in June of 2017, when the airport will be able to handle 1
million international passengers per year, said Kenichi Yokoyama, the
ADB's country director in Nepal. Buddha hub Meanwhile, Counsellor Ram Prasad Subedi at the Embassy of Nepal in Beijing said the discovery of the ancient temple at the centre of the Sacred Garden where the Buddha was born "will definitely boost Lumbini's significance and attraction as a holy place".

Nepal's government now aims to boost
the number of international tourists who visit the Himalayan nation to 2
million annually by 2020, compared with 800,000 who arrived in 2012.
Part of the drive to attract more visitors is aimed at the global
Buddhist community."In
Lumbini, you can already see monasteries that have been built by Japan,
China, Myanmar, and Cambodia, and so many countries support the master
plan for Lumbini's development," said Subedi. "The government of Nepal wants to develop Lumbini as a centre of peace." Lumbini's expanding glow as a pilgrimage site and as a symbol of cross-cultural understanding "is a great thing for Buddhists and people who believe in peace all over the world," he added.UNESCO is now perfecting a blueprint
to reach out to potential donors across the planet who are willing to
help protect one of the world's most important religious regions while benefitting local inhabitants, said Axel Plathe, UNESCO Representative to Nepal. The current excavations and archaeological discoveries made at Lumbini, Plathe added, "were the result of a UNESCO project that was funded by the government of Japan."Inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List in 1997, the group described Lumbini in glowing terms: "As
the birthplace of the Lord Buddha - the apostle of peace and the light
of Asia - the sacred area of Lumbini is one of the holiest places of one
of the world's
great religions, and its remains contain important evidence about the
nature of Buddhist pilgrimage centers from a very early period."UNESCO's
envoy to Nepal, who has been closely involved in overseeing the
archaeological exploration of the region, said that the temple and
monastery now being brought to light after being hidden for more than
2000 years are transforming age-old legends of the Buddha into
modern-day facts. Zone of peace In a UNESCO description of the Lumbini site, Plathe said its Buddhist groves and waterways form a dreamlike sanctuary: "Sacred
trees, beautiful flowers, celestial splendor, eternal tranquility -
these are the elements that constitute the place where Siddhartha, the
Lord Buddha, was born."

UNESCO and its partners, Plathe said, aim to guide Lumbini's
development into an expanding zone of peace, featuring modern schools
and hospitals, that fosters an ongoing dialogue involving the world's diverse cultures and peoples.The envoy said he hopes the new global spotlight on the site of the Buddha's birth will spark more patrons of culture and conservation around the world to help plan and finance Lumbini's future. Coningham added that the Sacred Garden, nearby monastic zone, and outlying pilgrim's village have been attracting explorers from virtually every point on the planet.This confluence of cultures swirls around the ancient pilgrimage site. "The Sacred Garden is still used by local Hindus, who also go there to celebrate," he added.Coningham, who has become over the past weeks perhaps the world's
best-known archaeologist, said the team leading the exploration of the
ancient temple and nearby sites is scheduled to release a comprehensive
book on its findings, titled "Excavations at Lumbini," in 2014.
