Siddhartha Gautama (Sanskrit/Devanagari: ????????? ???? Siddhartha Gautama, c.
563/480 – c.
483/400 BCE) or Siddhattha Gotama in Pali, also called the Gautama Buddha, the Shakyamuni Buddha ("Buddha, Sage of the Shakyas") or simply the Buddha, after the title of Buddha, was a monk (srama?a), mendicant, sage, philosopher, teacher and religious leader on whose teachings Buddhism was founded.
He is believed to have lived and taught mostly in the northeastern part of the ancient Indian subcontinent sometime between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.Gautama taught a Middle Way between sensual indulgence and the severe asceticism found in the srama?a movement common in his region.
He later taught throughout other regions of eastern India such as Magadha and Kosala.Gautama is the primary figure in Buddhism.
He is believed by Buddhists to be an enlightened teacher who attained full Buddhahood and shared his insights to help sentient beings end rebirth and suffering.
Accounts of his life, discourses and monastic rules are believed by Buddhists to have been summarised after his death and memorized by his followers.
Various collections of teachings attributed to him were passed down by oral tradition and first committed to writing about 400 years later.
