Indian philosophers) written, teach new ideas about life, death, and desire, focus on asceticism
– Siddhartha Gautama, aka The Buddha (Enlightened One), Hindu prince in Nepal (north near Himalayas), disturbed by the world of suffering, teaches new philosophy about rejecting all desires to achieve enlightenment
