Gautama (the Buddha-to-be) attained enlightenment, he gave up his
austere penances and his friends, the PaΓ±cavaggiya monks.

Seven
weeks after his enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, Buddha
left Uruvela and travelled to Isipatana to rejoin them because, using
his spiritual powers, he had seen that his five former companions would
be able to understand Dhamma quickly. While travelling to Sarnath,
Gautama Buddha had no money to pay the ferryman to cross the Ganges, so
he crossed it through the air.

Later
when King BimbisΔra heard of this, he abolished the toll for ascetics.
Gautama Buddha found his five former companions and awakened them with
the teachings of the Dhamma. At that time, the Sangha, the community of
the awakened ones, was founded. The sermon, Buddha gave to the five
monks, was his first sermon, called the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta. It
was given on the full-moon day of Asalha Puja. Buddha subsequently also
spent his first rainy season at Sarnath at the Mulagandhakuti. By then,
the Sangha had grown to 60 in number (after Yasa and his friends had
become monks), and so Buddha sent them out in all directions to travel
alone and teach the Dharma. All 60 monks were Arhats.

Several
other incidents connected with the Buddha, besides the preaching of the
first sermon, are mentioned as having taken place in Isipatana. It was
here when one day, at dawn, Yasa came to the Buddha and became an Arhat.
It was at Isipatana, too, that the rule was passed, prohibiting the use
of sandals made of talipot leaves. On another occasion when the Buddha
was staying at Isipatana, having gone there from RΔjagaha, he instituted
rules forbidding the use of certain kinds of flesh, including human
flesh.Twice, while the Buddha was at Isipatana, MΔra visited him but had
to go away discomfited.

which means “Lord of the Deer”, and relates to another old Buddhist
story in which the Bodhisattva is a deer and offers his life to a king
instead of the doe the latter is planning to kill. The king is so moved
that he creates the park as a sanctuary for deer. The park is active in
modern times.

this city is mentioned by the Buddha as one of the four places of
pilgrimage his devout followers should visit.[1] It was also the site of
the Buddha’s Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta, which was his first sermon

in the deer park at Sarnath. He preached the Four Noble Truths, the
middle path and the Eightfold Path. In the statue, he is seated in
Padmasana with his right hand turning the Dharmachakra, resting on a
Triratna symbol, flanked on either side by a deer. He is surrounded by
five Bhikkhus with shaven heads. In the background, Vajrapani and other
attendants, including probable princes, are seen. Statue on display at
the Prince of Wales museum.Besides the Dhammacakkappavattana Sutta
mentioned above, several other suttas were preached by the Buddha while
staying at Isipatana, among them the Saccavibhanga Sutta, the PaΓ±ca
Sutta (S.iii.66f), most popularly known by the somewhat misleading title
the Anattalakkhana Sutta the RathakΔra or Pacetana Sutta (A.i.110f),
the two PΔsa Suttas (S.i.105f), the Samaya Sutta (A.iii.320ff), the
Katuviya Sutta (A.i.279f.), a discourse on the MetteyyapaΓ±ha of the
ParΔyana (A.iii.399f), and the Dhammadin.

Bala Boddhisattva, an important statue for dating Indian art, was
dedicated in “the year 3 of Kanishka” (circa 123 CE) and was discovered
at Sarnath. Buddhism flourished in Sarnath because of kings and wealthy
merchants based in Varanasi. By the third century, Sarnath had become
an important centre for the arts, which reached its zenith during the
Gupta period (4th to 6th centuries CE). In the 7th century by the time
Xuanzang visited from China, he found 30 monasteries and 3000 monks
living at Sarnath.[17] Sarnath became a major centre of the Sammatiya
school of Buddhism, one of the early Buddhist schools. However, the
presence of images of Heruka and Tara indicate that Vajrayana Buddhism
was (at a later time) also practised here. Also, images of Brahminist
gods as Shiva and Brahma were found at the site, and there is still a
Jain temple (at Chandrapuri) located very close to the Dhamekh Stupa.
Kumaradevi, the Gahadvala queen, constructed the last structures at
Sarnath. In 1193, her grandson, Jaichand.

Ethical Conduct-3) Right Speech(Sammaa-vaacaa)-4) Right Action(Sammaa-kammanta)-
5) Right Livelihood(Sammaa-aajiva)
5. Right Livelihood: Right Livelihood means earning one’s living in an honest way - and in a way that avoids evils like telling lies or deception. In the Tipi.taka, in many places2, the Buddha exhorts even his monks, to earn their living by the monk’s equivalent of Right Livelihood, by avoiding such evils as fortune telling, sacrifices or interpreting dreams, because these are all ‘low arts’ [tiracchaanavijjaa]. The Buddha even prohibited monks from making medicines or from earning their living as a physician. As for householders, in the Va.nijja Sutta, the Buddha prohibits Buddhist laypeople from the following trades:
1. Selling weapons;
2. Selling people (as slaves);
3. Selling animals (live ones for slaughter);
4. Selling alcohol or drugs;
5. Selling poison.
