Buddhism does not teach that Buddha was a god, nor did Buddha teach about any gods. But Buddha did teach about the ultimate red pill, which is that life is basically just suffering. At the root of suffering is desire.

Those are the Four Noble Truths. Number one: life sucks. Number two: life sucks cuz you want stuff. Three: if you stop wanting stuff, then your life won't suck. Number four: there's a path you can take to not want stuff anymore.

It's simple, really. The more you desire something, the more disappointed you're going to be when you don't get it. For example, the more you like a pretty girl, the more disappointed you're going to be when she rejects you, and she will. The more you love money, the more disappointed you're going to be when the economy crashes, and it will.

You got to stop being so attached to all these worldly pleasures. So you need to break that attachment by denying yourself, and then you can be spiritually free. Life is a cycle of pain, but if you eliminate your desire, you can free yourself from the entire cycle and achieve Nirvana, which is true spiritual bliss.
