  1. : To calculate the time since Gautama Buddha’s birth in approximately 560 BCE, we add 2024 (current year) and 560, then subtract 1 because there is no year zero. This equals 2,583 years ago. Calculations like these help place historical figures within a timeline, showing the temporal gap between ancient events and the present. This context fosters a better understanding of historical progression and the lasting influence of figures like Buddha on subsequent generations.
