Through his teachings on karma and the four noble truths, Buddha showed the way that leads all beings to the experience of awakening and liberation from samsara (the cycle of repeated birth, suffering, and death). This demonstrates clearly his limitless compassion and loving-kindness towards all beings. Birth Born into the Shakya clan, Siddhartha Gautama was the crown prince of a great kingdom. His mother had a dream of a white elephant entering her right side, and soothsayers predicted he would become a great king or religious teacher. Enlightenment Siddhartha left the palace at age 29 after witnessing the suffering of others. He spent six years studying, meditating, and practicing self-deprivation, eventually becoming enlightened and a Buddha, which means "the awakened one". First Sermon After becoming enlightened, Siddhartha gave his first sermon in a deer park in Sarnath, India. This event is known as the turning of the wheel of Buddhist law, with the wheel becoming a symbol of Buddhist teachings. Death Shakyamuni Buddha's final words were, "Decay is inherent in all composite things. Work out your salvation with diligence". He was cremated, and his ashes were divided into eight parts, each enshrined in a stupa.
