In this book, Deepak Chopra tells us the life of this extraordinary character who, being heir to a great kingdom and accustomed to living among luxuries and whims, decides to abandon his home when he is still very young to explore the world. After consecrating himself to prayer and meditation, and helping the poor and sick, he discovers one day that his body and mind have been freed from earthly passions to become Buddha, the enlightened one. He has reached nirvana, a superior state of mind that allows him to be at peace with himself and with the outside world. From this moment on, Buddha will dedicate his life to spreading his doctrine and teaching Buddhism, a religion that continues to gain followers around the world.
