After various strenuous practices lasting 6 years, it is reported that Gautama sat down to meditate with the determination not to get up until full awakening (sammā-sambodhi) had been reached. This event was said to have occurred under a pipal tree—known as “the Bodhi tree” — in Bodh Gaya, Bihar when he was 35 years old. Gautama thus became known as the Buddha or “Awakened One”.
