Um das zu beantwortet poste ich einfach mal einen Teil der Geschichte Buddhas wie sie im SA Forum steht. Eventually though, the Buddha had to leave the palace, his father ordered the city cleared of all ills that could plague the prince, but was ultimately unable to clear them all. Over the course of three trips a shocked prince was exposed to the suffering of life, and vowed to discover the cure from death and suffering. He left to become a vedic priest and ascetic. While living an extreme life deprived of everything, a life in total suffering, the Buddha heard a musician speak to his son while floating down the river. “If a string is too tight, it will snap, if it is too lax it will not play.” And then inspiration came to the Buddha, he knew that the answer lay not in one or the other, but in balancing both deprivation and indulgence, in walking the middle path. He meditated on this under a bodhi tree for some time and found true enlightenment. Siddhartha became the Buddha, and resolved to help others achieve the same as he had. Das
