About Siddhartha Gautama

Siddhartha Gautama, the crown prince of the Shakya Kingdom, was born into royalty  adorned in silks, jewels, and the promise of a throne. Yet at the age of 29, moved by the profound suffering of the world, he renounced his palace and riches to seek a deeper truth. Through six years of unwavering meditation and discipline, he attained full enlightenment beneath the Bodhi tree, transcending the crown of a king to become something far greater the Shakyamuni Buddha, the crowned King of Dharma. He journeyed to the deer park of Sarnath, where he first turned the Wheel of Dharma, offering humanity not gold or power, but the timeless path to liberation and nirvana.
