        He studies Hindu Yoga and asceticism, and still could not find Nibbana.
        
        He then vowed to not move from under the Bo tree until he had achieved enlightenment.
        
        Mara, the evil one, then tried to cause him to slip by sending every force of nature to cause fear and craving within him thus causing him to move, but Siddhartha did not move, and eventually, he did become enlightened, and he emerged the Buddha..
        
        After hesitating once, knowing that not everyone who heard his teachings would become enlightened, he knew that even some would, and so he set off to teach those who would listen.
        
        Nibbana - also known as Nirvana, is the ultimate goal of Buddhism, and is their equivalent to heaven
