Gautama Buddha[note 4] (also Siddhārtha Gautama, Siddhattha Gotama;[note 5] Shakyamuni, Sakkamuni;[note 6] and The Buddha[note 7]) was an ascetic and spiritual teacher of ancient India who lived during the 6th or 5th century BCE.[4][5][6][note 8] He was the founder of Buddhism and is revered by Buddhists as a fully enlightened being[7][8][note 9] who taught a path to Nirvana (lit. vanishing or extinguishing), freedom from ignorance, craving, rebirth and suffering.

According to Buddhist tradition, the Buddha was born in Lumbini in what is now Nepal,[note 2] to highborn parents of the Shakya clan, but abandoned his family to live as a wandering ascetic.[9][note 10] Leading a life of begging, asceticism, and meditation, he attained enlightenment at Bodh Gaya. The Buddha thereafter wandered through the lower Gangetic plain, teaching and building a monastic order. He taught a middle way between sensual indulgence and severe asceticism,[10] a training of the mind that included ethical training and meditative practices such as effort, mindfulness, and jhana. He died in Kushinagar, attaining paranirvana.[note 3] The Buddha has since been venerated by numerous religions and communities across Asia.
