Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, was a spiritual teacher and the founder of Buddhism who lived in the 5th to 6th century BCE. Born a prince in Lumbini (present-day Nepal), he renounced his royal life in search of a solution to human suffering. After years of deep meditation and self-discipline, he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, becoming the Buddha, meaning “The Awakened One.” He taught the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, guiding others toward liberation from suffering and the cycle of rebirth. Shakyamuni Buddha represents wisdom, compassion, and the transformative power of inner awakening.
