Description

This is the story of a prince nurtured in luxury and wealth, walking away in search of the ultimate truth - the true meaning of life. For the compassionate Siddhartha, prince of the Sakya clan, wanted to find a way for people to face the pain and sorrows of their lives.

Two thousand five hundred years ago, a sage wandered along the dusty roads of North India, teaching the path to peace and enlightenment. Today the gentle words of Gautama Buddha have been transformed into a world religion.

The Four Noble Truths explain the reason for human suffering. The Noble Eightfold path shows the way to spiritual tranquility and finally nirvana. What is amazing is that the Buddha's teachings continue to be relevant today.
