When Siddhartha Gautama left the palace for the first time as an adult, he saw a man who seemed to be suffering. Then he saw a monk who had no possesions, but seemed to be so peaceful, so he gave up his life of luxury to become a monk.

What was Siddhartha Gautama's early life and what led him to his beliefs?

He was a prince destined to become either a great king or a greater spiritual leader. To keep him from seeing suffering and keep him from becoming a spiritual leader, his father hid him from suffering.
