The auspicious day of Buddha Purnima is here and it is being celebrated today, on May 5, 2023. Buddha Purnima is celebrated by the Hindu and the Buddhist community across the world to commemorate the birth anniversary of Gautam Buddha. Gautama Buddha, whose birth name was Siddhartha Gautama, was a spiritual teacher on whose teachings Buddhism was founded. Born as Prince Siddhartha, Gautam Buddha left his home and the materialistic world at the young age of 29. His mission was to seek answers to the truths about life and its suffering. It is believed that once on a royal ride, he came across a corpse and an ailing old man, which instigated him to seek answers to life's mysteries. According to Buddhist tradition, he was born in Lumbini, in what is now Nepal, to royal parents of the Shakya clan, before he renounced the material world.
After leading an austere life which included begging, asceticism, and meditation, Buddha attained enlightenment at Bodh Gaya under the Bodhi tree. Buddha travelled across the region, preaching to people about non-violence, the discipline of mind, and kindness. In fact, it was a couple of centuries after his death that he came to be known by the title Buddha, which means "Awakened One" or "Enlightened One."
