Christian and Buddhist Basic Teachings

The ‘Sanctity of Life’ Holy and Sacred Created by God Life is a gift Life must be preserved Every life has a purpose God alone decides the beginning and end of life

God created the world and everything in it Humans were given ‘ stewardship ’ over His creation – to take care and protect what doesn ’ t belong to them ‘ The earth is the Lord ’ s and everything in it. ’ God gives life and only he take it away All humans were created ‘ in God ’ s image ’ – exactly as he has planned ‘ Be fruitful and multiply ’ ‘An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.’ “Do not get drunk with wine, it will only ruin you.’ Judgement day – God will judge your actions and either reward or punish (heaven or hell)

Golden Rule – Treat others as you wish to be treated. ‘ Love thy neighbour ’ ‘Love your enemy’ ‘Turn the other cheek’ ‘We are all equal in Christ’ ‘Drink this wine in remembrance of me.’

Practise Metta - loving-kindness, good actions Practise Ahimsa - non-violence “ Hatred does not cease by hatred, hatred ceases by love ” (Dhammapada) Karma – your actions have consequences Karma affects your rebirth, so when you are reborn as a human, don ’ t mess it up as you waste all past good karma gain and so your chance of reaching enlightenment. Enlightenment – a state of tranquillity, contentment and peace where you are no longer within the cycle of rebirth – kind of like reaching heaven for Christians. 5 Precepts – –Do not harm others –Do not steal –Do not use harmful language –Avoid sexual misconduct –Do not use intoxicants

To see things as they really are Decide to follow the Eightfold Path by being kind to others Avoid telling lies, spreading gossip, saying hurtful things Be kind to others - not to harm, steal or be rude but speak the truth and respect your body. Have a job that helps others rather than harming Show kindness and feel positive thoughts towards others Be aware of what you do and how it affects others Meditate to avoid greed, hatred and ignorance and experience joy, love and kindness

‘ Always think compassion ’ ‘ Peace can exist if everyone respects all others ’ Buddhist spiritual leader
