∙ 14y agoBuddha was initially special because he demonstrated that people can sit and think on immense problems such as the source of suffering and find a solution without recourse to supernatural beings or other magical resources.

∙ 13y agoBuddha is a fitting role model for us all:
- He was born into a life of luxury but left it when he felt there was more to existence than extravegant consumption
- He attempted a life of severe denial but left it when he found that his own pain and suffering adds nothing to the good of humanity
- He rationally idenified the cause o human suffering
- He independently developed a way fo us to escape suffering (the Eightfold Path)
- He demonstrated the Eightfold Path by living it confirming that anyone can do it
- He spent his life spreading the teaching which would benefit humanity

When was Buddha famous?
Buddha is "famous" in the same way as the Christian Jesus is "famous". Buddha was a well known and respected person at his birth, he was after all a Prince. As he grew and became enlightened he became well known for his teaching on the escape from suffering and the cycle of death and rebirth He continued to be respected for his teachings from that time until now and will continue to be respected and well known for years to come. So the answer is Buddha started out his life 2500 years ago as a "famous" person and remains so today.
