Born in Nepal he grew up in a palace with luxury
Predicted he would be a great king or a great holy man
Once out of the palace he saw four sights that changed his life

These sights made him consider a simple fact of life
Everything Changes and dies
No longer satisfied with his palace life he went to live as a holy man

Enlightenment He trained himself to go
without food and water
One night in deep meditation the Buddha faced all his fears and demons
He saw that the suffering was caused by desire
