Living Inside Prince Siddharthas Palace

Posted on September 4, 2026September 4, 2026 by Dharma Documentaries
A look at the life of Prince Siddhartha as it may have been inside the palace at Kapilavastu.

Living Inside Prince Siddhartha's Palace

This is a rather excellent and realistic look at how Prince Siddhartha may have lived in the palace before he set out on his quest for Awakening. The video, made with AI, looks at his life, the society around him, and the evolving political situation he was born into.

It is a little idealised, but remains grounded in archeological and historical accounts, and surely gives a better impression of what his life would have been like than the romanticised versions of Bollywood.

There are a number of glitches in the AI reconstruction, but I feel these can be overlooked for now, while gaining a fair insight into the life of the young prince. One of the better AI videos I have seen so far, and I expect they will only get better.

if the video does not appear on the page, try reloading the page; and if that doesn’t work, leave a comment so I can update the page (the comment is not published)
