Detailed explanation-1: -Prince Siddhartha’s father wanted his son to be a great and powerful ruler. The king was worried about the Brahmins’ predictions. If the prince saw the world’s suffering, he might ignore his royal duties to seek a spiritual path.
Detailed explanation-2: -However, Siddhartha’s father did not want him to be a religious leader. For this reason, according to legend, Siddhartha was restricted to the palace. His father tried to shield him from suffering and make his life as pleasant as possible.
Detailed explanation-3: -Siddhartha’s father loved him, but he let him go, let him find his own way, walk his own path. Siddhartha only now understands the depth of parental love, and he surely regrets the sorrow his father must have felt in never knowing what became of his son.
