Buddha is a very important figure that millions of people around the world respect. The word “Buddha” means “the enlightened one” or “the awakened one”. This title was given to a man named Siddhartha Gautama, who was born in Nepal around 2,500 years ago.

Siddhartha was a prince, but he left his royal life to understand the truth of life and the world. After many years of meditation, he claimed to have found the answers and became the Buddha.

People who follow Buddha’s teaching are called Buddhists. They learn from his wisdom and try to live a compassionate and kind life. Buddhism is more about understanding and experiencing than just believing everything without questions.

People often see statues of Buddha in a meditative pose with a peaceful expression. This helps remind Buddhists to seek inner peace and enlightenment.

The teachings of Buddha are found in a collection of writings known as The Tripitaka, or Three Baskets. These cover matters like ethics, philosophy, and procedures for monks. Learning from Buddha’s teachings helps Buddhists understand the world and live a better life.
