Buddha, “The Awakened one” was born Siddhartha Gautama in Lumbini, known today as Nepal during the sixth century. Siddhartha achieved enlightenment and embraced nirvana while meditating underneath a Bodhi tree. It was there that he envisioned The Four Noble Truths, and The Eightfold Path that became the basis for Buddhist teachings.
