    I don't understand the archaic spelling of Siddhartha. Please do a search with the proper spelling and then see if you get more hits. The Buddha is not called, "Siddhartha Gupta" AFAIK. Though he was born during the period which some call the Gupta period. Not sure why you would call him that though. It's all very archaic.


    If you want Buddha's life story then do a search for Buddha's Life or something. It's pretty simple. Siddhartha Gautama Shakyamuni Buddha.
