Some 2,500 years ago, Siddhartha Gautama, a prince of the royal Shakya
Clan of Nepal, meditated under the bodhi tree (a type of fig tree) in
the Indian town of Bodh Gaya (in eastern India) and attained
enlightenment. Gautama Buddha is often called the Shakyamuni Buddha
because of his lineage. Heart Sutra is a popular Mahayana Sutra known
for its brevity and depth of meaning.
