Introduction of Shakyamuni Buddha

Siddhartha Gautama was born as the crown prince of the mighty Shakya Kingdom, raised as a king according to his royal father's wishes. Around age 29, he encountered immense human suffering. He renounced his palatial lifestyle, lavish clothing, and fortune to discover the source of this anguish and find a cure. After over six years of study, self-denial, and intense concentration, he finally achieved his objective, attaining nirvana and becoming a Buddha. He then stated that he had visited a deer park outside Sarnath (Benares), near Varanasi, India.
