Siddhartha Gautama is associated with Buddhism’s origins; Buddha means Awakened One. The prince leaving a sheltered life for a spiritual quest belongs to traditional biography. Every courtly and travel detail should not be presented as independently verified by a contemporary historical record. Traditional and scholarly life dates also differ.
