BuddhismBuddhism was founded by the Buddha, a monk who lived 2,500 years ago in northern India. Buddhism is the main religion for 300 million people worldwide. It originated approximately 2,500 years ago when a Buddha named Siddhartha Gautama was enlightened at the age of 35. The Buddhist religion is more of an idea or a "way of life". Buddhism has a solution to life, which is injustice and difference in the world; offers a code of conduct that leads to true happiness. Buddhism has many beliefs taught by the Buddha such as: samsara, rebirth, karma, nirvana, the four noble truths and the eightfold path. One of the Buddhist teachings is that money and power do not provide true happiness and that they are only temporary. People in every country suffer, whether rich or poor, but those who learn Buddhist teachings can only discover true happiness (White). The theory of Samsara in Buddhism states that the cycle of life, which includes birth, life, death, and rebirth. The word can actually be translated as “continuous movement”. Samsara is a continuous cycle of life and death, in which people or living beings can travel through the six realms of existence. This theory is completely related to the ideas of Karma and Nirvana. In Buddhist teachings, the cause of the existence of Samsara is people's attachment to things. It comes from ignorance and causes a state of suffering and frustration. Samsara can be overcome by following the Eightfold Path and also by successfully improving one's karma. Essentially, Samsara on earth is full of pain and fullness of regret. The idea of Samsara is supposed to teach people how to have maximum control over themselves. If people use the rules of… middle of the card… flexibility and intellect (White). Buddhism carries in its stomach the power to renew personalities, civilizations and the world. It is a repetition of the internal and external revolution. If you are tormented by a sense of non-existence, sorrow, or held in a web of regret, Buddhism has something to offer you. If you are concerned about the well-being of the world and want to participate in meaningful community action, then Buddhism has something to offer you. Buddhism has a lot to offer you, and it may be just what the world needs to save itself from itself. The Buddha embarked on a journey to discover his true nature and the true nature of the world. He depended on absolutely nothing but his own abilities and asked everyone else to do the same. And now you too are asked to encounter the truth and see what Buddhism is all about. It might shock you (Kozak).
