He realized that  people  had to go  through  sorrows and miserable  people  had to go  through  sorrows and miserable  lives. This  thinking made  him give  up the  princely  life  and decided to abandon  the coomon and social  life.

 One night , he left his  young  wife,  his son  and his  royal  palace and set  out for  the place where  he could  find out  the way  for remedy. He  devoted  in different  places  and reached Gaya, place in India, where  he gained "Bodhisatto",  the knowledge.
