Step into the story of Siddhartha Gautama, the man who became the Buddha. In this thought-provoking unit, you’ll explore fascinating facts and myths about his birth, discover the Four Sights that changed his life, and imagine what it would be like to swap a life of luxury for one of poverty. Along the way, you’ll reflect on how everything is interconnected, investigate the causes of suffering, and ask the big question: can suffering ever truly be avoided? A journey into history, philosophy, and the search for wisdom.
