Wallpaper with Gautama Buddha, also known as Siddhārtha Gautama, Shakyamuni.

According to tradition, the historical Buddha lived from 563 to 483 B.C., although scholars postulate that he may have lived as much as a century later. He was born to the rulers of the Shakya clan, hence his appellation Shakyamuni, which means “sage of the Shakya clan.” The legends that grew up around him hold that both his conception and birth were miraculous. His mother, Maya, conceived him when she dreamed that a white elephant entered her right side (1976.402). She gave birth to him in a standing position while grasping a tree in a garden (1987.417.1). The child emerged from Maya’s right side fully formed and proceeded to take seven steps. Once back in the palace, he was presented to an astrologer who predicted that he would become either a great king or a great religious teacher and he was given the name Siddhartha (“He who achieves His Goal”). His father, evidently thinking that any contact with unpleasantness might prompt Siddhartha to seek a life of renunciation as a religious teacher, and not wanting to lose his son to such a future, protected him from the realities of life.

The ravages of poverty, disease, and even old age were therefore unknown to Siddhartha, who grew up surrounded by every comfort in a sumptuous palace. At age twenty-nine, he made three successive chariot rides outside the palace grounds and saw an old person, a sick person, and a corpse, all for the first time. On the fourth trip, he saw a wandering holy man whose asceticism inspired Siddhartha to follow a similar path in search of freedom from the suffering caused by the infinite cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. Because he knew his father would try to stop him, Siddhartha secretly left the palace in the middle of the night (28.105) and sent all his belongings and jewelry back with his servant and horse. Completely abandoning his luxurious existence, he spent six years as an ascetic (1987.218.5), attempting to conquer the innate appetites for food, sex, and comfort by engaging in various yogic disciplines. Eventually near death from his vigilant fasting, he accepted a bowl of rice from a young girl. Once he had eaten, he had a realization that physical austerities were not the means to achieve spiritual liberation. At a place now known as Bodh Gaya (“enlightenment place”), he sat and meditated all night beneath a pipal tree. After defeating the forces of the demon Mara, Siddhartha reached enlightenment (1982.233) and became a Buddha (“enlightened one”) at the age of thirty-five.

The Buddha continued to sit after his enlightenment, meditating beneath the tree and then standing beside it for a number of weeks. During the fifth or sixth week, he was beset by heavy rains while meditating but was protected by the hood of the serpent king Muchilinda (1987.424.19ab). Seven weeks after his enlightenment, he left his seat under the tree and decided to teach others what he had learned, encouraging people to follow a path he called “The Middle Way,” which is one of balance rather than extremism. He gave his first sermon (1980.527.4) in a deer park in Sarnath, on the outskirts of the city of Benares. He soon had many disciples and spent the next forty-five years walking around northeastern India spreading his teachings. Although the Buddha presented himself only as a teacher and not as a god or object of worship, he is said to have performed many miracles during his lifetime (1979.511). Traditional accounts relate that he died at the age of eighty (2015.500.4.1) in Kushinagara, after ingesting a tainted piece of either mushroom or pork. His body was cremated and the remains distributed among groups of his followers. These holy relics were enshrined in large hemispherical burial mounds (1985.387), a number of which became important pilgrimage sites.

Menurut tradisi, Buddha sejarah hidup 563-483 B.C., walaupun ulama postulat bahawa dia mungkin telah hidup sebanyak satu abad kemudian. Beliau dilahirkan kepada raja-raja puak Shakya, oleh itu gelaran beliau Shakyamuni, yang bermaksud "sage puak Shakya itu." Legenda yang membesar di sekeliling beliau berpendapat bahawa kedua-dua konsep dan kelahirannya adalah ajaib. Ibunya, Maya, mengandungnya apabila dia bermimpi bahawa gajah putih memasuki sebelah kanannya (1976,402). Dia telah melahirkan dia dalam keadaan dia berdiri sambil menggenggam sebatang pokok di taman (1987.417.1). Kanak-kanak itu muncul dari sebelah kanan Maya terbentuk sepenuhnya dan meneruskan untuk mengambil tujuh langkah. Setelah kembali di istana, beliau telah disampaikan kepada ahli nujum yang meramalkan bahawa beliau akan menjadi sama ada seorang raja yang besar atau guru agama yang hebat dan dia telah diberikan nama Siddhartha ( "Dia yang mencapai Matlamat-Nya"). Bapanya, ternyata berfikir bahawa apa-apa hubungan dengan perselisihan mungkin meminta Siddhartha untuk mendapatkan kehidupan yang melepaskan ikatan sebagai guru agama, dan tidak mahu kehilangan anaknya untuk masa depan yang lebih itu, memeliharanya dari realiti kehidupan.

Sebarang kejadian kemiskinan, penyakit, dan juga usia tua kerana itu tidak diketahui oleh Siddhartha, yang membesar dikelilingi oleh segala kemudahan di dalam sebuah istana mewah. Pada usia dua puluh sembilan, beliau membuat tiga tunggangan kereta berturut-turut di luar kawasan istana dan melihat orang tua, orang sakit, dan mayat, semua buat kali pertama. Pada perjalanan keempat, dia melihat seorang lelaki mengembara suci yang zuhud diilhamkan Siddhartha untuk mengikuti jalan yang sama untuk mencari kebebasan dari penderitaan yang disebabkan oleh kitaran yang tidak terhingga kelahiran, kematian, dan kelahiran semula. Kerana dia tahu bapanya akan cuba untuk menghentikan dia, Siddhartha diam-diam meninggalkan istana di tengah-tengah malam (28,105) dan dihantar semua barang-barang dan barang kemas beliau kembali dengan hamba dan kudanya. Benar-benar meninggalkan kewujudan mewah, dia menghabiskan masa selama enam tahun sebagai seorang yang zuhud (1987.218.5), cuba untuk menakluk selera semula jadi untuk makanan, seks, dan keselesaan dengan melibatkan diri dalam pelbagai disiplin yoga. Akhirnya hampir mati berpuasa berwaspada, dia diterima semangkuk beras dari seorang gadis muda. Apabila dia telah dimakan, dia mempunyai kesedaran bahawa pertapaan fizikal tidak cara untuk mencapai pembebasan rohani. Di tempat yang kini dikenali sebagai Bodh Gaya ( "tempat pencerahan"), dia duduk dan termenung sepanjang malam di bawah pokok Pipal. Selepas mengalahkan kuasa-kuasa syaitan Mara, Siddhartha mencapai pencerahan (1982.233) dan menjadi Buddha ( "satu pencerahan") pada usia tiga puluh lima.

Buddha meneruskan untuk duduk selepas pencerahannya, bertafakur di bawah pohon dan kemudian berdiri di sebelahnya untuk beberapa minggu. Dalam minggu kelima atau keenam, beliau telah dilanda hujan lebat manakala bertafakur tetapi telah dilindungi oleh bonet raja ular itu Muchilinda (1987.424.19ab). Tujuh minggu selepas pencerahannya, dia meninggalkan tempat duduknya di bawah pokok itu dan mengambil keputusan untuk mengajar orang lain apa yang telah dipelajari, menggalakkan orang ramai untuk mengikuti jalan yang dipanggil "The Middle Way," yang merupakan salah satu daripada baki bukannya ekstremisme. Dia memberikan khutbah pertamanya (1980.527.4) di taman rusa di Sarnath, di pinggir kota Benares. Beliau tidak lama lagi mempunyai ramai murid dan menghabiskan empat puluh lima tahun akan datang berjalan di sekitar timur laut India menyebarkan ajarannya. Walaupun Buddha memperkenalkan dirinya hanya sebagai guru dan bukan sebagai dewa atau yang disembah, dia dikatakan telah melakukan banyak mukjizat semasa hayatnya (1979,511). akaun tradisional berkaitan bahawa dia meninggal dunia pada usia lapan puluh (2015.500.4.1) dalam Kushinagar, selepas mengambil sekeping tercemar sama ada cendawan atau daging babi. Mayatnya dibakar dan mayat diedarkan di kalangan kumpulan pengikutnya.
