nepal
Siddhartha Guatama was a prince who lived a life shielded from the reality of the society about him and human hardship. When he did leave the palace, he encountered a man with a disease, human suffering, an ascetic, and an old person. These experiences left him asking questions about life and spirituality, which caused him to leave behind his life and become an ascetic seeking enlightenment and the meaning of suffering.
