Inspirational Quote from Buddha:
"The way is not in the sky. The way is in the heart."

Gautama Buddha was born in 563 b.c. in northeast India. The Buddha was the son of Suddhodana, King of the Sakyas, who ruled at Kapilavastu, on the border of Nepal. His mother was Queen Maya and he was named Siddhartha. He lived amidst the pleasures of palace life and at 16 he was married to Princess Yasodhara. They had a son named Rahula. After seeing an old man, an invalid, and an ascetic beggar, he learned of suffering and decided to embrace asceticism. Soon afterwards, at 29, Siddhartha left the palace and his family and went to a hermitage where he became monk Gautama, or, as he is still called, Sakyamuni (The ascetic of the Sakyas). One day, meditating under a sacred figtree, he attained Bodhi, or perfect illumination. He had become a Buddha. From then on he traveled and preached for 44 years what was to become one of the main religions of the world. He died at Kusinagara at 80 years old.
