Who is Guatama Buddha?

Answer 1

The Buddha was a hindu sant/satguru(enlightened and blessd soul),not a god or a prophet, who lived two thoushand five thoushand years ago in acient India. A very famous king of India called King Ashok believed in him and spread his messages all the way across India and Asia through missoneries, causing the followers of the Buddha's to grow to such an extenient that it split of Hinduism and became a separate religion called Buddhism!

Answer 2

The Buddha grew up a prince in India. Until he was a young man, he had never encountered aging or death. When he happened to hear a story of a servant's death, he became very disillusioned about his posh life. Leaving the palace and his princely lifestyle, he began his historic journey towards enlightenment. He tried all the methods of worship, but in vain. At last, He sat below 'A bodhi tree' for 6 days and attained enlightenment. Thus was born Buddhism or Buddhadhamma. Taking on 5 disciples, called the Bodhisattva, He aided others on the path of enlightenment. His highest teachings are that any that seeks enlightenment is a Buddhist. His intention was not to be worshipped or idolized in any way. Only to follow his example and that was all He desired for any creature seeking the place He had attained.
A majestic object of awesomeness

The remainder of his life was devoted to teaching his philosophy.
