Shakyamuni Buddha, the historical Buddha, is a revered figure whose teachings form the foundation of Buddhism. His journey to enlightenment under the Bodhi tree and his profound teachings on the nature of suffering, compassion, and wisdom continue to guide countless practitioners on the path to spiritual liberation. The image of Shakyamuni Buddha in meditation, often depicted in the bhumi sparsha mudra (earth-touching gesture), symbolizes his moment of enlightenment and his unwavering connection to the Earth as a witness to his spiritual victory.
