Under the Bodhi Tree in Bodh Gaya, India, Siddhartha sat in meditation, vowing not to rise until he had attained supreme knowledge. After 49 days of meditation, at the age of 35, he attained enlightenment. He realized the Four Noble Truths: the truth of suffering, the truth of the origin of suffering, the truth of the cessation of suffering, and the truth of the path to the cessation of suffering. This profound understanding freed him from ignorance and craving, and he became the Buddha, or the "Awakened One."
At 35, Siddhartha sat under a pipal tree (now called the Bodhi Tree) in Bodh Gaya. He vowed, "Let my skin, sinews, and bones wither, but I will not rise until I find the end of suffering."
