Question

How was Asoka Maurya and Siddhartha Gautama similar?

Answer 1

He was an Indian Prince who was kept in his palace as when he was born, a wise man told his father - the king - that if he saw suffering, he would give up on the idea of being king and would become a holy man. When he was 16, he married and had a child but he felt bored so he asked a man to take him around the kingdom. He saw suffering so he went to think why. He found a tree and sat beneath its shade. He sat thinking about why there was suffering in the world. He called this meditation. Eventually, he found the answer after 46 days of meditating. He called this realisation enlightenment. He became the first Buddha. A Buddha is a Buddhist achieves enlightenment. So Suddhartha Gautama discovered Buddhism.
