'The path of truth is one
Not so easy for single person
To follow the same alone
But with a team, it can be done'
This fact Buddha knew well.
A Sangha, with trained people,
He organized first, to support
Each other in their pursuit.
Under the guidance of Buddha,
Many joined this Sangha,
A very popular institution,
That worked for human elevation.
Yash, a rich lad, one day,
Asked Buddha the way
Leading to happiness,
For him to stay in peace.
When he was in the palace,
This problem Buddha did face,
So, he took pity on the lad
And acted as his guide.
Yash then joined Sangha
To remain with Buddha.
And learn from the Master
All the lessons faster.
His parent joined later,
And his friends thereafter,
Thus grew up this institution
With fresh men and women.
Once a crowd came running
Saying they were searching
For a woman who stole
Their precious jewels.

Buddha said, 'Search for
Real wealth, it's better,
From your true self
For a happy peaceful life.'
Their eyes, then opened,
And as monks, they joined.
Like this Sangha grew up well
With more and more people.
