The Buddha. He meditated for so long that he reached a state of enlightenment and nirvana. Then he just spread it to try to keep the world from suffering by cutting off your desire for worldly possessions. I believe his real name was Siddhartha Gautama, if that's what you are looking for.

The history of Buddhism religion dates back to the year 580 BC, which started with the birth of Buddha Siddhartha Gautama. Born in the Lumbini, Southern Nepal, Siddhartha left his home at a young age of 29 years, in search of enlightenment. After going through a life of self-denial, discipline and meditation, he attained enlightenment, which resulted in the alleviation of all his pain and suffering. He then set on a journey of teaching people the path to enlightenment that would liberate them from the cycle of life and death
