Who is Buddha?

     Buddha means "Awakening" and it is a title given in Buddhist philosophy to those who fully awakened to the true nature of the phenomena and began to disclose this discovery to other beings. "The true nature of phenomena", here, means the understanding that all phenomena are impermanent, unsatisfactory and impersonal. Becoming aware of the characteristics of reality, it is possible to live fully, free from the mental conditions that cause dissatisfaction, discontent, suffering.

     From the point of view of classical Buddhist doctrine, the word "buddha" denotes not only a religious teacher who lived in a particular time, but a whole category of enlightened beings who achieved such spiritual realization. Traditional Buddhist scriptures mention at least 24 Buddhas that appeared in the past, at different times.
