Key Facts 2,500 years old 376 million followers worldwide Over 150,000 Buddhists in Britain No belief in a personal God Nothing is fixed or permanent, change is always possible Worship can take place at home or at a temple Path to Enlightenment through certain practices

“Awakened One” Nontheistic religion Based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gaurama -shared insights to help end sufferings through the elimination of ignorance and cravings with understanding and seeing dependant origination and the 4 noble truths. One of the most dominant of religions within the continent of Asia No prayers as such Pain, impermanence and egoless-ness are known as the three marks of existence.

Four Noble Truths The truth of Dukkha -Suffering, anxiety, unease etc. -Anxiety or the stress of trying to hold onto things that are constantly changing. -Realistic practical assessment of the human condition (all beings must experience suffering and pain at some point in their life) The truth of the origin or Dukkha (Samudāya) -Buddha claimed to have found the cause of suffering: desire, tanhā, which comes in the three forms, the Three Roots of Evil The truth of cessation (Nirodha) -Buddhists must reach Enlightment (Nirvana) -After death an enlightened person is liberated from the cycle of rebirth, but Buddhism gives no definite answers as to what happens next. The truth of the path to cessation from suffering (Magga) -This is a set of principles called the Eightfold Path. -(Also called the Middle Way): avoids both indulgence and severe asceticism

The Eightfold Path Right Understanding (Sammā ditthi) - Accepting Buddhist teachings. (The Buddha never intended his followers to believe his teachings blindly, but to practise them and judge for themselves whether they were true.) Right Intention (Sammā san ̄ kappa) - A commitment to cultivate the right attitudes. Right Speech (Sammā vācā) - Speaking truthfully, avoiding slander, gossip and abusive speech. Right Action (Sammā kammanta) - Behaving peacefully and harmoniously; refraining from stealing, killing and overindulgence in sensual pleasure. Right Livelihood (Sammā ājīva) - Avoiding making a living in ways that cause harm, such as exploiting people or killing animals, or trading in intoxicants or weapons. Right Effort (Sammā vāyāma) - Cultivating positive states of mind; freeing oneself from evil and unwholesome states and preventing them arising in future. Right Mindfulness (Sammā sati) - Developing awareness of the body, sensations, feelings and states of mind. Right Concentration (Sammā samādhi) - Developing the mental focus necessary for this awareness.

Wheel of Life BIRTH DEATH REBIRTH SUFFERING

Ethics Abortion: - believe that life should not be destroyed, however, they regard causing death as morally wrong if the death is caused purposefully or by neglect. Capital Punishment: - the best approach to an offender is reformatory rather than punitive -punishment should only be to the extent to which the offender needs to make amends Euthanasia: -Like most, Buddhists are against involuntary euthanasia but their position on voluntary euthanasia is less clear. Animals: -Buddhism beliefs requires us to treat animals kindly, however there are some negative aspects. The doctrine of karma implies that souls are reborn as animals because of past misdeeds. Being reborn as an animal is a serious spiritual setback.
