This documentary shows archaeologists uncovering the history of Buddha. Buddha was a prince in India 400 years BC by the name of Siddhartha. In his teens, he went outside the insular palace walls and discovered there was great suffering in the world such as old age, disease, and death. He journeyed in the lands as well as in his mind to find answers to the end of such sufferings and discovered it through contemplative meditation while sitting under a tree. There he reached nirvana and became Buddha, the “awakened one”. This was the start of the Buddhism.
