Shakyamuni Buddha

Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, was the historical founder of Buddhism who lived around 2,500 years ago in what is now Nepal. He was born into the royal Shakya clan and raised in a life of luxury and comfort. However, he became deeply troubled when he encountered the realities of human suffering such as aging, sickness, and death. At the age of twenty-nine, he renounced his princely life and began a spiritual quest in search of truth and liberation. He practiced extreme forms of asceticism but eventually realized that the middle path was the way to enlightenment. At the age of thirty-five he attained awakening while meditating under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya. From that moment, he became known as the Buddha, which means the Awakened One and he spent the rest of his life teaching the Dharma.
