Introduction To Shakyamuni Buddha :
Shakyamuni Buddha, born Siddhartha Gautama, was the historical founder of Buddhism. After years of spiritual questing and asceticism, he achieved complete enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India. He then spent the remainder of his life teaching the Dharma, the path to liberation from suffering, which forms the core principles of Buddhist philosophy worldwide. His teachings emphasise compassion, wisdom, and the interconnectedness of all beings.
