Author Details

Buddhism” is derived from the word “buddha”, which in turn is derived from the words “buddhi” and “bodhi”. These words literally mean intellect”, “intelligence”, “wisdom” or “supreme knowledge”. More specifically, they refer to the intelligence and the supreme knowledge that a Buddha possesses because of the understanding of the four noble truths. Metaphorically, however, they are usually translated as “enlightenment” or “awakening”, and the word “Buddha” as “enlightened” or “awakened”.
