But when he was approximately 29 years old, he became aware of the excruciating suffering endured by humans. He gave up his palatial lifestyle, lavish clothing, and wealth to learn the causes of this suffering and how to put an end to it. He succeeded in his goal after nearly six years of study, self-deprivation, and intense focus. He was now fully enlightened (a Buddha). On the outskirts of Varanasi, he claimed to have been to a deer park in Sarnath (Benares), India.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eView More from Our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/evamratna.com\/collections\/shakyamuni-buddha\" title=\"Shakyamuni Buddha Statues Collection\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eShakyamuni Buddha Statues Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ESB","offers":[{"title":"15cm x 10cm","offer_id":50151311212794,"sku":"22255ESBShakyamuniBuddha","price":735.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0442\/7218\/9604\/files\/1d040595-bd92-4ff2-94c1-6f5efa3e545f-copy.jpg?v=1787462474","url":"https:\/\/enlightenmentthangka.com\/products\/shakyamuni-buddha-enlightened-presence-statue","provider":"Enlightenment Thangka","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
