Unless one knew Buddha back them, one does not know Buddha. Only know by his teachings and stories about him. Even stories can be false, but lying people who love to tell stories. Therefore it is uncertain, but highly possible.
There is a story telling that Buddha has reached his high spiritual level and state of mind, that he would see spirits in his meditations, yet not give them much attention, nor be attached to any psychic experiences. One of the main reason is such creates karma, which leads to spiritual suffering. When meditated on deeply, and experienced, one may find this to be more real than a belief. This didn't mean Buddha didn't use his spiritual ability, in fact he was a spiritual healer and great teacher. Other words, a spiritual leader, holy man. To the seekers, this story tells that Buddha was a high level psychic, one who has reached a more pure state. But since none of us know in personally, one doesn't know how pure he was, and if the stories were true.
