It is said that he left his easy life and went out into the world to try to understand why people have sadness and pain in their lives. He wanted to know what people can do about these things. After studying and thinking a lot, he "woke up" to the idea that pain and suffering are part of life but that people can still be happy by leading very simple lives and being good to others. Siddhartha began to teach other people these things, and, after some time, he came to be known as Buddha, one who has "woken up" to a great truth. |
