A fig tree
the Bodhi Tree was just a normal tree before Siddhartha meditated under it so he just randomly picked any tree,maybe with leaves that shades underneath from the sun so he wouldn't be disturbed by heat. People named it because it was near siddhartha when he was enlightened.
Siddhartha meditated in many places; he became enlightened under the bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India.
Siddhartha Gautama aka the Buddha, traveled away from his home in India and frequently meditated. He went for days without eating until he reached "enlightenment" where it was said he was meditating under a tree that came to be known as "the Tree of Enlightenment"
Siddhartha Gautama, The Buddha, sat under a fig tree, also called a Peepal tree and gained enlightenment. The scientific name of a peepal tree is Ficus religiosa.
The tree woman is 71 in 2011. I find it amazing that she cares SO much about nature! Three cheers for the tree woman name wangari!
Prince Siddhartha became a Buddha after attaining enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India, around the age of 35. This event is known as the Buddha's Awakening or Enlightenment.
