Sacred fig (Ficus religiosa) is a species of banyan fig, characterized by great age and large size (up to 30 meters (98 feet) in height and a trunk diameter of up to three meters (9.8 feet)) and considered sacred by followers of Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. Besides sacred fig, other common names include bo, Bodhi, peepul (or pipal), and the ashvastha tree.
Two famous representatives of sacred fig are the Bodhi tree and the Sri Maha Bodhi tree propagated from it. Siddhartha Gautama, the spiritual teacher and founder of Buddhism who later became known as Gautama Buddha, is said to have been sitting underneath a sacred fig, known as the Bodhi tree, when he was enlightened (Bodhi), or "awakened" (Buddha). The known planting date of the Sri Maha Bodhi, 288 B.C.E., in Sri Lanka, gives it the oldest verified age for any angiosperm (flowering plant).
The sacred fig, or bo tree, is a well-known symbol for happiness, prosperity, longevity, and good luck. Today in India, Hindu Sadhus still meditate below this tree, and in Theravada Buddhist Southeast Asia, the tree's massive trunk is often the site of Buddhist and animist shrines.
