Lord Buddha
Lord Buddha was one who left all his riches to ultimately attain his happiness.
There are different types of buddhism.
Most scholars divide the different types of Buddhism into three sections. The first of these is Southern Buddhism, or Theraveda Buddhism. This is the oldest form. It means that meditation is the biggest aim to true enlightenment or awareness.
The second type of Buddhism that is mentioned is Eastern Buddhism, or, Mahayana Buddhism. This along with meditation believes you can attain enlightenment through compassion and humbleness towards others.
The third of the different types of Buddhism is Northern or Tibetan Buddhism. This relates much to the religion of Hinduism. It is open to many teachings that is deemed to be "true".
