Buddhism
To Open The Eyes of People
Buddhism
A son of a king and a queen, Siddhartha Gautama was not pleased with all of his riches and the Caste System. He was raised as a Hindu, but at the age of 29, he left his palace and went to seek the end of suffering. He created the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path which helped with quest. Many people believe that Buddhism is a religion when it's actually a Belief System because they don't pray or believe in a God. Meditation is their form of praying basically. He sat under a tree for 49 days and at the age of 35, he was rewarded with Enlightenment. He lived the rest of his life teaching what he has discovered to be the End of Suffering until he died between 483 BC and 400 BC
