The term "Buddha" refers to a title rather than a personal name. It originates from the Sanskrit word "Buddha," which means "awakened" or "enlightened." In Buddhism, it specifically denotes a person who has attained supreme wisdom and enlightenment through their own efforts, transcending ignorance and suffering.
Historically, the term is most commonly associated with Siddhartha Gautama, who lived in ancient India around the 6th century BCE. He is known as the historical Buddha or Shakyamuni Buddha, and he founded the teachings and philosophy that became known as Buddhism.
In broader terms, "Buddha" can also refer to the potential for enlightenment that exists within all beings according to Buddhist teachings. It signifies a state of profound understanding, peace, and liberation from the cycle of birth and death (samsara).
The image or figurine of Buddha is often used as a representation or reminder of these qualities and teachings, serving as a focal point for meditation and reflection in Buddhist practice.
