Who was the Buddha? Siddhartha Gautama, a prince born in Nepal more than 2500 years ago, gave up all of his worldly possessions at the age of 29 and went on a journey to understand the true nature of human existence. After almost seven years of intense concentration and self-deprivation, Gautama found the answers while sitting in deep meditation beneath a Bodhi tree. At that moment, Gautama became "The Enlightened One" - the Buddha. He spent the next 45 years traveling throughout northern India and Nepal, teaching thousands upon thousands of disciples the way to end suffering and to achieve enlightenment. Importantly, the Buddha insisted that the Truth led away from him, and instead towards our inner selves. This is why the Buddha is not worshipped like a god. Rather, he is revered as a great teacher. He was just a man who became enlightened, and who showed the world that each of us could become enlightened too. Today, over 500 million people in every corner of the world call themselves Buddhists. Why? Because millions of people have discovered for themselves how the Buddha's teachings can bring relief from suffering and fill their beings with joy. This is the beauty and simplicity of Buddhism: The keys to unlocking unbounded happiness and joy are inside of you right now, and there is a simple but powerful way to access these keys and begin to live a more fulfilling, loving, and compassionate life immediately. Start each day with wisdom from one of history's greatest teachers - the Buddha himself. Let his words inspire action so that every day becomes better than the last. With 365 days worth of wisdom at your fingertips, it's never been easier to start becoming who you were meant to be all along.
