Shakyamuni Buddha

Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, was a spiritual teacher whose insights laid the foundation for Buddhism. He was born around the 5th or 6th century BCE in Lumbini, in present-day Nepal, into a royal family of the Shakya clan, hence the name Shakyamuni, meaning “Sage of the Shakyas”.

Despite a life of luxury, Siddhartha was deeply moved by the suffering he witnessed outside the palace walls old age, sickness, and death. These encounters led him to renounce his princely life at the age of 29 in search of a deeper truth. After years of ascetic practices and meditation, he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India, at the age of 35. From that moment, he became known as the Buddha, or “the awakened one”.
