Elements of Religion; Buddhism Element #1 Creed.pptxMelchorFactor1
Buddhism originated in India in the 6th-5th century BCE. Buddhists believe in non-theism and that life involves suffering caused by attachments and earthly desires. The key teachings are the Three Universal Truths of impermanence, non-self, and suffering; the Four Noble Truths of the existence and causes of suffering and the path to end it; and following the Middle Path as outlined in the Eightfold Path.
Buddhism was founded by Buddha over 2500 years ago in India. After experiencing unhappiness as a prince, he went on a spiritual journey and achieved enlightenment. He taught that life involves suffering, but following the Noble Eightfold Path and Four Noble Truths can end suffering and attain true happiness. The Four Noble Truths state that suffering exists, its cause is craving, suffering can end, and the Eightfold Path provides the way to end it. The Eightfold Path outlines right understanding, thought, speech, action, livelihood, effort, mindfulness, and meditation.
There have been several attempts to integrate Buddhist psychology with Western psychology. Some key figures like Erich Fromm and Alan Watts helped introduce Buddhist concepts to Western audiences. Modern psychologists have found parallels between Buddhist meditation techniques and cognitive behavioral therapy methods. However, adapting Buddhism solely for happiness and self-fulfillment distorts its original purpose of ending suffering through awakening and renunciation. While Buddhist and Western psychology can inform each other, a full integration is not possible since their goals differ - psychology aims for well-being while Buddhism seeks the end of rebirth and liberation from ignorance.

In Hinduism, Brahman is described as the one absolute and eternal reality, and enlightenment involves realizing one's true self as Brahman.

2. Buddhism is a religion to about 300
million people around the world. The
word comes from 'budhi', 'to
awaken'. It has its origins about
2,500 years ago when Siddhartha
Gotama, known as the Buddha, was
himself awakened (enlightened) at
the age of 35.
What is Buddhism?
3. How Can Buddhism Help Me?
Buddhism explains a purpose to life, it
explains apparent injustice and
inequality around the world, and it
provides a code of practice or way of
life that leads to true happiness.
4. Buddhism is becoming popular in western
countries for a number of reasons. The first
good reason is Buddhism has answers to
many of the problems in modern materialistic
societies. It also includes (for those who are
interested) a deep understanding of the human
mind (and natural therapies) which prominent
psychologists around the world are now
discovering to be both very advanced and
effective.
Why is Buddhism Becoming Popular?
5. Who Was the Buddha?
Siddhata Gotama was born into a royal family in
northen India, in 563 BC. At 29, he realised that wealth
and luxury did not guarantee happiness, so he explored
the different teachings religions and philosophies of the
day, to find the key to human happiness. After six years
of study and meditation he finally found 'the middle
path‘ and was enlightened. After enlightenment, the
Buddha spent the rest of his life teaching the principles
of Buddhism - called the Dhamma, or Truth - until his
death at the age of 80.
6. Was the Buddha a God?
He was not, nor did he claim to be. He was a
man who taught a path to enlightenment from
his own experience.
7. Do Buddhists Worship Idols?
Buddhists sometimes pay respect to images of
the Buddha, not in worship, nor to ask for
favors. A statue of the Buddha with hands
rested gently in its lap and a compassionate
smile reminds us to strive to develop peace and
love within ourselves. Bowing to the statue is
an expression of gratitude for the teaching.
8. Why are so Many Buddhist Counties Poor?
One of the Buddhist teachings is that wealth
does not guarantee happiness and also wealth is
impermanent. The people of every country
suffer whether rich or poor, but those who
understand Buddhist teachings can find true
happiness.
9. Are There Different Types of Buddhism?
There are many different types of Buddhism,
because the emphasis changes from country to
county due to customs and culture. What
does not vary is the essence of the teaching -
the Dhamma or truth.
10. Are Other Religions Wrong?
Buddhism is also a belief system which is tolerant of all
other beliefs or religions. Buddhism agrees with the
moral teachings of other religions but Buddhism goes
further by providing a long term purpose within our
existence, through wisdom and true understanding. Real
Buddhism is very tolerant and not concerned with labels
like 'Christian', Moslem','Hindu' or 'Buddhist'; that's why
there have never been any wars fought in the name of
Buddhism. That is also why Buddhists do not preach and
try to convert, only explain if an explanation is sought.
11. Is Buddhism Scientific?
Science is knowledge which can be made into a
system, which depends upon seeing and testing
facts and stating general natural laws. The core of
Buddhism fit into this definition, because the
Four Noble truths (see below) can be tested and
proven by anyone in fact the Buddha himself
asked his followers to test the teaching rather than
accept his word as true Buddhism depends more
on understanding than faith.
12. What did the Buddha Teach?
The Buddha taught many things, but the basic
concepts in Buddhism can be summed up by
the Four Noble Truths and the Noble
Eightfold Path.
13. What is the First Noble Truth?
The first truth is that life is suffering ie, life
includes pain, getting old disease and
ultimately death. We also endure psycho-
logical suffering like loneliness frustration,
fear, embarrassment, disappointment and
anger. This is an irrefutable fact that cannot be
denied. It is realistic rather than pessimistic
because pessimism is expecting things to be
bad. lnstead, Buddhism explains how suffer-
ing can be avoided and how we can be truly
happy.
14. What is the Second Noble Truth?
The second truth is that suffering is caused by craving
and aversion. We will suffer if we expect other
people to conform to our expectation, if we want
others to like us, if we do not get something we
want,etc. In other words, getting what you want does
not guarantee happiness. Rather than constantly
struggling to get what you want, try to modify
your wanting. Wanting deprives us of contentment
and happiness. A lifetime of wanting and craving and
especially the craving to continue to exist, creates a
powerful energy which causes the individual to be
born. So craving leads to physical suffering because it
causes us to be reborn.
15. What is the Third Noble Truth?
The third truth is that suffering can be
overcome and happiness can be attained that
true happiness and contentment are possible. lf
we give up useless caving and learn to live
each day at a time (not dwelling in the past or
the imagined future) then we can become happy
and free. We then have more time and energy to
help others. This is Nirvana.
16. What is the Fourth Noble

our actions have results. This simple law explains a
number of things: inequality in the world, why some
are born handicapped and some gifted, why some
live only a short life. Karma underlines the
importance of all individuals being responsible for
their past and present actions.

oneself, and (3) the effects on others.
20. What is Wisdom?
Buddhism teacher that wisdom should be developed
with compassion. At one extreme, you could be a
good-hearted fool and at the other extreme, you could
attain knowledge without any emotion. Buddhism
uses the middle path to develop both. The highest
wisdom is seeing that in reality, all phenomena are
incomplete, impermanent and do no constitute a fixed
entity. True wisdom is not simply believing what we
are told but instead experiencing and understanding
truth and reality. Wisdom requires an open, objective,
unbigoted mind.
The Buddhist path requires courage patience,
flexibility and intelligence.
21. What is Compassion?
Compassion includes qualities of sharing
readiness to give comfort sympathy, concern,
caring. In Buddhism, we can really understand
others, when we can really understand
ourselves, through wisdom.
22. How do I Become a Buddhist?
Buddhist teachings can be understood and tested by
anyone. Buddhism teaches that the solutions to our
problems are within ourselves not outside. The
Buddha asked all his followers not to take his word as
true, but rather to test the teachings for themselves. ln
this way, each person decides for themselves and
takes responsibility for their own actions and
understanding. This makes Buddhism less of a fixed
package of beliefs which is to be accepted in its
entirety, and more of a teaching which each person
learns and uses in their own way.
