Gautama prepared a Middle Way within physical decadence and the strict asceticism observed in the sramaṇa movement which was prevalent in his region. He later explained completely other areas of ancient India such as Magadha and Kosala.

Siddhartha Gautama, a prince born around 563 BCE in Nepal, became the Buddha after renouncing his royal life to seek enlightenment. His journey led him to discover the 'Middle Way' and achieve enlightenment under the Bodhi tree at the age of thirty-five. He then spent the rest of his life teaching others about the nature of suffering and the path to liberation through Buddhism.
