13 Bell Work Who was the founder of Buddhism? What was he? He found that all of life is what?

14 Buddhism Founded by Siddhartha Guatama Buddha Buddha was an Indian Prince who lived in luxury and comfort inside the palace. One day he left the palace gardens and saw an Old man, a sick man, and a dead man.

15 Buddhism Buddha realized: Life is full of suffering. He became the Enlightened one. He explained the 4 noble truths: 1.All life is full of suffering, pain, and sorrow. 2.The cause of suffering is desire for things such as riches, power and long life. 3.The only cure for suffering is to overcome desire. 4.The way to overcome desire is to follow the 8- fold path.

16 Cure for suffering The only cure for suffering is to follow the Eightfold Path, a middle road between a life devoted to pleasure and a life of harsh self-denial. It is important to live a moral life. Enlightenment is achieved through meditation. The ultimate goal is nirvana, union with the universe and release from the cycle of rebirth.
