Siddhartha Gautama was a very rich man but was not happy because of the great suffering others were experiencing from the Caste System. He also began the Buddhist religion but more on that later
So he began a journey to find answers
But Nobody could give him any answers
?
One Day he decided to meditate under a tree in Gaya he stayed in the meditating state for 7 weeks
While meditating he realized the 4 Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path
He tought his findings to others and many of the lower class people were overjoyed and called him The Buddha or "The Enlightened One"
