Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Why did prince Siddhartha leave the palace and became a beggar? Answer: While out hunting prince Siddhartha chanced upon a sick man, an aged man and then a funeral procession and he also saw a monk begging. He realised that world is full of sorrow so he left the palace in the search of enlightenment.
Detailed explanation-2: -He lived the sheltered life of a typical prince, with every luxury he could desire. When he was 29 years old, legend dictates, he was jolted out of his idleness by the “Four Signs”: he saw in succession an old man, a sick person, a corpse being carried to cremation, and a monk in meditation beneath a tree.
