Long ago, the Buddha helped mankind govern their earthly desires, and showed them the path through darkness. He abandoned his royalty, his family, all wordly desires and the six emotions to tread an untrodden path, like the horn of the rhinocerous, to achieve enlightenment in just six years under the Bodhi Tree. Born alone, lives alone, and fights alone. A profligate son, indulgent in sweets and ruled only by his own whims.
