The Buddha background

The Buddha

Ancient Southeast Asia saw the emergence of a profound philosophical movement around 400 BC, rooted in Buddhism, a spiritual path established by Prince Siddhartha Gautama, who achieved enlightenment through intense meditation under a fig tree.

In ancient South East Asia, a profound philosophy emerged, rooted in the teachings of Buddha, a Nepalese prince who attained enlightenment while meditating under a fig tree. Unlike traditional spiritual leaders, Buddha did not claim divine status, but rather presented himself as a human who had discovered a path to inner peace, which he believed others could also follow.
