Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Gautama Buddha, is the historical founder of Buddhism and the embodiment of enlightenment. Born as Siddhartha Gautama, he renounced a life of luxury to seek the truth, ultimately attaining enlightenment and sharing his teachings with the world. His iconic earth-touching gesture signifies his triumph over Mara, the embodiment of worldly distractions, and his connection to the Earth as a witness to his enlightenment. Shakyamuni Buddha’s teachings on the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path continue to guide practitioners toward liberation from suffering.
