Buddhism

Buddhism is a religion based on the

teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, who lived about 25 centuries ago in

 what is now Nepal and northeastern

India. He came to be called "the

Buddha," which means "awakened

one," after he experienced a profound realization of the nature of 

life, death and existence. In English,

the Buddha was said to

be enlightened , although in

Sanskrit it is bodhi , "awakened."
