Revels arrived in Washington at the end of January 1870, but could not present his credentials until Mississippi was readmitted to the United States on February 23. Senate Republicans sought to swear in Revels immediately afterwards, but Senate Democrats were determined to block the effort. Led by Senator Garrett Davis of Kentucky and Senator Willard Saulsbury of Delaware, the Democrats claimed Revels’s election was null and void, arguing that Mississippi was under military rule and lacked a civil government to confirm his election. Others claimed Revels was not a U.S. citizen until the passage of the 14th Amendment in 1868 and was therefore ineligible to become a U.S. Senator. Senate Republicans rallied to his defense. Though Revels would not fill Davis’s seat, the symbolism of a black man’s admission to the Senate after the departure of the former President of the Confederacy was not lost on Radical Republicans. Nevada Senator James Nye underlined the significance of this event: “[Jefferson Davis] went out to establish a government whose cornerstone should be the oppression and perpetual enslavement of a race because their skin differed in color from his,” Nye declared. “Sir, what a magnificent spectacle of retributive justice is witnessed here today! In the place of that proud, defiant man, who marched out to trample under foot the Constitution and the laws of the country he had sworn to support, comes back one of that humble race whom he would have enslaved forever to take and occupy his seat upon this floor.”14 On the afternoon of February 25, the Senate voted 48 to 8 to seat Revels, who subsequently received assignments to the Committee on Education and Labor and the Committee on the District of Columbia.

This question is referring to the historical Buddha, also known as Gautama Buddha or Siddhartha Gautama, among other names, whose teachings were the origin of Buddhism. He was born into a noble family and, as a young man, he had a very pleasurable existence, but after leaving his palace one day and seeing an old man, a sick man, and a dead man, he soon realized that those pleasures were momentary and superficial, and that no one could avoid sickness, age, and death. For that reason, he decided to renounce his princely life and quested for nirvana, the termination of all sickness, death, and old age, which, after living a very ascetic life for a few years, he attained practicing the Middle Way, which convinced him of rejecting both self-indulgence and self-denial. This eventually led him to Enlightenment, which turned him into the Buddha. He spent the rest of his life teaching others.
