Siddhartha Gautama, also known as the Buddha, was born in Lumbini, Nepal, in the 6th century B.C., into the Shakya clan. He was raised in luxury, shielded from harsh realities. At 29, he encountered the "Four Sights." Siddhartha, deeply affected by the sights, left his royal life to seek enlightenment. He meditated under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, vowing not to rise until he reached enlightenment. Buddha died at 80, advising followers to be their light.
Baba Saheb Ambedkar, born in 1891, was a Dalit Indian who faced caste discrimination from a young age. Despite being treated as "untouchable" and feeling disillusioned with the political system's effectiveness, Ambedkar is revered as the architect of the Indian Constitution and a significant figure in social justice.
