These Nepalese are savage people how could they choose goddess for certain year and then rmove and pick new one this is just a child abuse and lack of education, a childs life has been ruined here, they shouldn't practice this kind of ritual

The term "bodhisata/Pali" or "bodhisatva/Sanskrit" simply means someone who is on the path to enlightenment. So technically all lay Buddhists are "bodhisatas" because we all seek enlightenment. Siddhartha was able to recognize himself when he became a Buddha, at that point HE WAS the Dhamma. If you read the earliest scriptures you will notice the Buddha made no differentiation between his own enlightenment and that of his monks and nuns.

so wat u mean is buddha is not derived frm boddhisatwa?? so who named siddhartha gautam a buddha?

I personally own 3/4 of the Pali Suttapitaka, the oldest collection of the Buddhas teachings, I am a devout Buddhist. I also have a BA in Art, the earliest period of Buddhist art was known as an-iconic, they represented the Buddha with a bodhi tree or empty throne, never by depicting the person. When the Bactrian Greeks converted to Buddhism they brought their tradition of statue making with them, converting their favorite god; Apollo, into the Buddha.
