Buddhism arose in India in the 500s B.C.E. when a prince, later to be known as the Buddha, began his quest for spiritual answers. Who was this prince?

Sagot :

The prince was Siddhartha Gautama

Siddhartha gautam

Siddhartha Gautama also proclaimed as the Gautama Buddha or the Shakyamuni who was a monk pauper, philosopher, scholar, educator and spiritual guide on whose instructions Buddhism was established. He is supposed to have endured and taught chiefly in the northeastern part of classical India sometime within the 6th and 4th centuries BCE

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.
