Siddhartha Gautama, known as Shakyamuni Buddha, was a spiritual teacher from ancient India whose teachings founded Buddhism. Born in Lumbini (present-day Nepal) around 563 BCE, he renounced worldly life to seek enlightenment, eventually attaining profound realization under the Bodhi tree. His teachings on the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path offer a framework for understanding suffering and achieving liberation.
