Professor Gustavo Porras addressed the subject of philosophy as a path to the search for wisdom, which has found its highest expression in some extraordinary human beings. This is the case of Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha, founder of a religion and philosophy that has elevated humanity in its search for the peace of the soul and spiritual enlightenment. His message has endured for thousands of years.

The universality and continuing relevance of his teachings make them a valuable guide for our daily lives. Buddha investigated, understood and provided solutions to the problem of suffering in life, explaining its causes and proposing a way to overcome it.
