Views Buddhists do not believe that this world is created and ruled by a God. Buddha urged his followers to focus instead on the Four Noble Truths by which they can free themselves from suffering.

The Four Noble Truths Suffering Exists.

The Four Noble Truths Suffering arises from attachment to desires.

The Four Noble Truths Suffering ceases when attachment to desire ceases.

The Four Noble Truths Freedom from suffering is possible by practicing the Eightfold path.

Eight-Fold Path 1.Right Speech 2.Right Action 3.Right Livelihood 4.Right Effort 5.Right Mindfulness 6.Right Contemplation 7.Right View 8.Right Thought

The Eightfold Path - Morality Right Speech – Speaking in a non hurtful, not exaggerated, truthful way. Avoid lies and gossip.

The Eightfold Path - Morality Right Action – Avoiding harmful actions. Don’t steal from or harm others.

The Eightfold Path - Morality Right Livelihood - Not harming in any way oneself or others; directly or indirectly. Reject work that hurts others.

The Eightfold Path - Meditation Right Effort – Making constant effort to improve oneself. Prevent evil and do good.

The Eightfold Path - Meditation Right Mindfulness - Mental ability to see things for what they are with clear consciousness. Control your feelings and thoughts.

The Eightfold Path - Meditation Right Contemplation - Being aware of the present reality within oneself, without any craving or aversion. Practice meditation.

The Eightfold Path - Wisdom Right View - Understanding reality as it is, not just as it appears to be. Incline towards goodness and kindness.

The Eightfold Path - Wisdom Right Thought - Change in the pattern of thinking. Believe in the nature of existence as suffering and in the Four Noble Truths.

Views However, disbelief in a creator God does not mean that Buddhism is atheistic. Some are atheistic while others are polytheistic (I told you this stuff was confusing!)

Life’s Purpose In Buddhism, the purpose of life is to end suffering. Buddha = Enlightened One The Middle Way: Correct way to live your life.

Afterlife Buddhists believe people are reincarnated when they die. This is different than reincarnation in Hinduism because Buddhists do not believe the soul passes on to the next body.

Afterlife Nirvana – the candle is “blown out” as you are extinguished from the cycle of death and rebirth and freedom from the effects of karma
