Buddha, also known as Siddhartha Gautama, was a spiritual leader and founder of Buddhism, one of the world’s major religions.

His teachings focus on the path to enlightenment, liberation from suffering, and achieving Nirvana (the state of ultimate peace and freedom from the cycle of birth and death).
