Gautama Buddha

The historical teacher to whom early Buddhist discourses are traditionally attributed.

Foundation editorial draft · Updated 2026-10-18

Orientation

The Ānāpānasati Sutta is part of the Pali Canon and is traditionally attributed to the Buddha. This library does not attempt a full historical biography from one translation.

Keep in context

Read attribution, oral transmission, translation, and later reception with care; early Buddhist texts have complex histories.
