Shakyamuni Buddha, also known as Gautama Buddha or the Historical Buddha, is the founder of Buddhism and one of the most revered spiritual teachers in history. Born as Siddhartha Gautama in the 5th–6th century BCE in ancient India, he was a prince who renounced his royal life in search of truth and liberation from suffering. After years of deep meditation and ascetic practices, he attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, where he realized the Four Noble Truths and the path to liberation from the cycle of birth and death.
