Presentation transcript:

An ancient religion and philosophy based on the teachings of Buddha.

Realized that this world is full of suffering and was in search of lasting happiness. At the age of 29 he left the luxuries of the palace, retired to the forest and followed a life of meditation. Attained enlightenment under the Bodhi tree in Bodh Gaya, India. Spent rest of his life, teaching others to realize what he himself had discovered.

Dukha-Satya - Truth of suffering. Life is suffering. Samudaya-Satya - Truth of the cause. Suffering is caused by desire (Tanha) and ignorance (Avijja). Nirodha-Satya - Truth of cessation. Suffering can be ended if its causes, desire and ignorance are removed. Marga-Satya - Truth of path. The eight fold path. Buddhism inherits principles of dharma, karma, ahimsa, rebirth and nirvana (moksha) from Hinduism. Philosophy

The Eight-Fold Path Right Livelihood Right Mindfulness Right Effort Right Conduct Right Speech Right Meditation Right Knowledge Right Resolve Right Mindfulness

Dharma is understood as the practice (paripatti) of the truth. To take refuge in the Dharma is to take refuge in Buddha. Karma is intentional action, physical, verbal or mental. Good karma brings happiness, bad brings suffering. Avijja and Tanha is ignorance or not knowing the true nature of things and craving are the two root causes of Karma. Cycle of Rebirth – We are born and reborn in six realms of exhistence based on one’s previous Karma. Nirvana (Enlightenment) – To go beyond the cycle and achieving blissful state is Nirvana.

Budhist Scriptures are called the Tripitaka or the “Three Baskets” Suttapitaka – Budha’s sermons Vinayapitaka – Monastic rules Abhidhammapitaka – Early philosophical treatises

Three Main Schools of Buddhism Theravada or Hinayana – Sri Lanka, Thailand, Burma, Cambodia Mahayana – China, Japan, Vietnam, Korea Vajrayana – Tibet, Mongolia, Japan

Variety of practices aid in the journey to enlightenment. As Buddhism spread from India across many parts of Asia, it absorbed many local religious beliefs and traditions. Therefore practices differ widely in various parts of the world.
