Siddhartha’s parents kept him away from seeing any disease, poverty, aging, and sickness so he can grow up to be a powerful ruler.
Such a lovely palace!
Damn, my wife left me....again
food, food, food
Once seeing the world outside the palace, he wanted to solve the problem of suffering and tried methods such as starvation and meditation to know how.
Why must they suffer, what is the reason??
I deserve a raise
Where am I?
After 49 days of meditation, he realized humans are never satisfied which causes them to suffer. He is now enlightened and shares his new ideas with others.
Humans are suffering because they want everything.
Oohh how do we stop?
After living both as rich and poor, he finds out neither are good and chooses to live a middle way. This means there is no reborn, but instead you reach Nirvana.
You need to reach Nirvana
What's Nirvana?
After death, you reach a place of condition called Nirvana which you find peace and don’t have the need to want things, this results in no suffering.
A state of peace and no suffer.
Interesting
After Buddha’s death, many have joined into practicing Buddhism and finding Nirvana.
