Buddah / Buddha / Buddhism
Historical founder of Buddhism, Guatama Siddhartha, who was born circa
581-501 BC as the first son of King Suddhodna, whose capital city of
Kapilavastu was located in what is now Nepal. At the age of twenty-nine,
he left his father’s palace and his wife and child in search of
the meaning of existence. One morning at the age of thirty five, he
realized enlightenment while practicing meditation seated beneath the
Bodhi tree. Thereafter, he spent the next forty five years, until his
death at the age of eighty, expounding his teachings in order that all
sentient beings might realize the same enlightenment that he had. Nowadays,
the term “a Buddha” denotes anyone who has realized enlightenment,
while “The Buddha” refers to the historical Buddha, Sakyamuni.
“Buddhas” naturally refers to all enlightened beings.”
(from The Seeker’s Glossary of Buddhism)
In this rendition, his fat stomach, which protrudes from the robes
he wears, symbolizes the largeness of his soul.
It is also a symbol of happiness, luck, and generosity.
