Sakyamuni Buddha
A Brief Introduction

 

Committed to save the world

 
        Siddartha was brought up by His aunt, Mahaprajapoti.

        Residing in palaces, Siddhartha lived in comfort and luxury.  However, the royal prince was kind and compassionately concerned with the hardships of His people.

        The royal prince grew up with constant research in various academic life studies.  There were times when He contemplated the suffering of peasants in their drudgery.  He also noticed the suffering of animals when they were preyed on by predators.

        Siddhartha was weary of conflicts and struggles in life.

        The royal prince often journeyed, resulting in His thorough understanding of the rationale in the sufferings of birth, aging, sickness and death.  He gradually developed his commitment to save the world.
