Sujata Kuti

Location

The travel of Buddha prior to attaining Nirvana is also revered by the followers, thus Sujata Kuti, a Stupa created in memory of Sujata, the daughter of the Senani (Village chief) of Uruvela, who offered him a meal of milk rice and honey. In fact it is believed to be the first morsel of grain consumed by Buddha after this hardship of six years. The Buddha was in a very fragile state and had lost all his belongings, including his clothes and his faithful but disillusioned followers, during the six years of meditation.

The place is situated around 8 km from Bodh Gaya and is a must visit for its importance in the life of the Lord.
