Siddhartha Gautama's destiny was foretold by a sage who proclaimed the child would either rule as a mighty sovereign or emerge as a spiritual guide capable of alleviating human suffering. Despite his father's efforts to shield him from life's harsh realities, the prince eventually encountered the inevitable presence of pain, illness, and mortality that touches all existence.
This profound awakening compelled Siddhartha to make an extraordinary choice.
