Buddhism was founded by the Indian price Siddhartha at age 35 he became known as the Buddha; the enlighten one. One fundamental belief of Buddhism if often referred to as reincarnation-the concept that people are reborn after dying. Most people go through many cycles of birth, living, death and rebirth. The three trainings or practices of Buddhism are: Sila, Samadhi, and Prajna.
-Sila: Virtue, good conduct and morality. Which is based on two principles, the principle of equality; that all living things are equal and the principle of reciprocity; to do onto others as you would wish them do onto you which is also the golden rule in Christianity.
-Samadhi: Concentration, meditation and mental development. Developing one's mind is the path to wisdom which in turn leads to personal freedom.
-Prajna: Discernment, insight, wisdom and enlightenment. Wisdom will emerge if your mind is pure and calm.
The Four Noble Truths:
Dukkha: the truth of suffering. The Buddha explained that birth is suffering, aging is suffering, death is suffering, and death is suffering, sorrow, pain, grief, and despair are suffering. The first truth is that humans' existence is characterized by unsatisfactory, which is the meaning of the word Dukkha.
Tanha': the truth that suffering is caused by craving. The Buddha taught the five ascetics that craving is the origin of suffering, for craving, together with lust and greed.
Nirodha: the truth that cessation of suffering is possible.
And the fourth truth is the Eightfold path leading to the extinction of suffering.
