☛ Shakyamuni Buddha: Brief Introduction
The ancient Sanskrit term ‘Buddha’ translates to ‘awakened’ or ‘supreme awareness’, closely linked with ‘Bodhi’ denoting enlightenment. Gautama Shakyamuni, born around 563 BCE in Lumbini (now Nepal), epitomizes compassionate understanding and enlightened consciousness. His teachings centered on understanding desire’s role in perpetuating suffering, a theme resonating across Hinduism, Jainism, and related faiths. He emphasized how greed, selfishness, and possessiveness obscure higher awareness, perpetuating suffering among the sick, hungry, elderly, and impoverished. Gautama’s serene image stands in contrast to Western ideals of materialism and outward pride, advocating for inner enlightenment as the path to alleviating worldly suffering.
