Meaning of Buddha

Majority of the people connect the word Buddha with Lord Gautam (the enlightened one) but Gautam became a Buddha. There are many followers of Lord Gautam who became Buddha. Buddha is made up of 2 words. Buddhi & dhadha. Buddhi means intellect & the other word dhadha means beyond intellect or not connected with mind.

Thus Buddha means that rising beyond the thoughts or getting freedom from the thoughts & emotions.

Majority of the people become a slave of their own thoughts & emotions that comes in their mind. Mind keeps dwelling between past & future.

Buddha means coming out of the thoughts or rising beyond thoughts & emotions, reaching a point where thoughts aren’t able to disturb or one remains unperturbed with the thoughts or emotions. It’s also about reaching a point where one is unaffected by the thoughts or comments of others.
