- Siddhartha Gautama, was born around 567 B.C.E., in a small kingdom just below the Himalayan foothills. He grew up in princely luxury, shielded from the outside world, entertained by dancing girls, instructed by brahmins, and trained in archery, swordsmanship, wrestling, swimming, and running.
- There, in the streets of Kapilavastu, he encountered an old man, a sick person, a corpse being carried to cremation, and a monk in meditation beneath a tree. Nothing in his life of ease had prepared him for this experience.
- He began to think about old age, disease, and death and decided to follow the way of the monk. For six years, he led an ascetic life of renunciation.inally, while meditating under a tree, he concluded that the solution was not withdrawal from the world but rather a practical life of compassion for all.
- He began his first teaching by telling his listeners to take the middle way.
- Siddhartha finally saw the answer to the questions of suffering that he had been seeking. In that movement of pure enlightenment, Siddhartha Gautama became the buddha "he who is awake."
