It's irrelevant whether the egg came first or the chicken. It's also irrelevant whether there's a supreme creator of all existence.
How does solving the puzzle of the chicken and egg help with your current existence?
Buddha happened to be sitting under a Bodhi tree during an intense meditation session when he was enlightened. Nothing mystical or magical about the time and location.
Life's lessons provided the answers for him not divinity. Cause and effect can be experienced in everyday life. You do not need a "divine" book to tell you that.

So, Buddha doesnt believe in God. But did he tell u whether the chicken or the egg came out first?
When u say Buddha was enlightened while sitting under the Bodhi tree, he got all the answers about life and death. But "who" gave him those answers? Cause & effect (karma) practically endorsed by most religions, fyi.
