In religious iconography, the Bodhi tree is recognizable by its heart-shaped leaves, which are usually prominently displayed. It takes 100 &#8211; 3,000 years for a bodhi tree to fully grow.[citation needed]<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><span style=\"color: #808080;\">The term &#8222;Bodhi tree&#8220; is also widely applied to currently existing trees, particularly the Sacred Fig growing at the Mahabodhi Temple, which is allegedly a direct descendant of the original specimen. This tree is a frequent destination for pilgrims, being the most important of the four main Buddhist pilgrimage sites. Other holy Bodhi trees which have a great significance in the history of Buddhism are the Anandabodhi tree in Sravasti and the Bodhi tree in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka. Both are believed to have been propagated from the original Bodhi tree.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;\">In den Berichten des <span style=\"color: #800000;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Buddha<\/span><\/span> &#252;ber seine Erleuchtung\u00a0 ist mit keinem Wort davon die Rede, da&#223; ihm die Erkenntnis unter einem Baum gekommen sei. Einige Buddhismus-Forscher halten daher den Baum als Ort der Bodhi f&#252;r ungeschichtlich und mutma&#223;en, da&#223; vorbuddhistische Baumkulte in den Buddhismus Eingang gefunden h&#228;tten. Aber ist es nicht v&#246;llig nat&#252;rlich, da&#223; ein hausloser Wander\u00admendikant, wo immer er sich niederl&#228;&#223;t, dies unter einem Baum tut, der ihn nachts vor dem Tau und tags vor der sub\u00adtropischen Sonne beschirmt?
