Am not sure if this is what they called tree of awakening or Bo Tree. But similar to what I have read before.. Saw this at the market According to https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodhi_Tree The Bodhi tree at the Mahabodhi Temple is called the Sri Maha Bodhi. Gautama Buddha attained enlightenment (bodhi) while meditating underneath a Ficus religiosa. According to Buddhist texts, the Buddha meditated without moving from his seat for seven weeks (49 days) under this tree. A shrine called Animisalocana cetiya, was later erected on the spot where he sat. I wonder how the buddha survived in 49 days not moving under the tree. I'm even cramping if my legs are folded for 30mins 😅
