I think u know him as a preacher ............... He preached the world about kindness and lived as an example. From Indian ethics u can get ur answer
Enlightment and Nirvania.
Buddha gained KNOWLEDGE OF SELF in his lifetime. Before him Hindu beleived that worshipping the gods was the only mean to reach god after death. But Buddha found NIRVANA in this life without doing any ritual.
Famous Buddhists (during the Buddha's lifetime) were the disciples of the Buddha, who had attained any of the 4 stages to enlightenment.
The Buddha specifically forbade his followers from making statues or other items depicting him for fear that they would turn him into a deity or start worshiping him. As time past this obviously was not followed. This explains why all artistic depictions of Buddha are different, because there are no images of Buddha from his time lifetime.
Like a man from the population of North India in 500 BCE. There were no images of the Buddha made during his lifetime, as he asked that he not be immortalized in that way. The descriptions of the Buddha in the texts of the day are all stock lists of qualities anyone in his day was supposed to have if they were to be Enlightened Ones and so are completely unreliable. We do not know any details of what the Buddha looked like.
Perhaps you mean when was Buddhism founded? Buddha was born in 563 B.C. so it was sometime after that, during his lifetime, since he founded Buddhism.
Google images is the best.Answer:There are no actual pictures of Buddha, just like there are no actual pictures of the Christians Jesus. No photographs (not invented) or realistic drawings of the Buddha were made during his lifetime. Artists have made drawings and sculptures have carve statues to represent him, but these are the artists depictions, not factual.Pictures of the Buddha can be purchased as ethnic boutiques, new age shops, poster shops, antique shops and similar.

Buddhism originated in what is now India, and then spread all over Asia, and now, it's gaining its own traditions in Europe and America. Buddhas are different than Buddhists. A Buddha is an enlightened being, and we all have a Buddha nature, and can become Buddhas, even if in this lifetime we don't practice the Dharma. Buddhists are those who practice the Dharma, or the path toward enlightenment as taught by Guatama Buddha.
