Introduction to Buddhism

Buddhism is an unique Religion in that it does not have

a God. It was started by Siddhartha Gautama around

563 BCE and 483 BC.

The Aim of Buddhism is to help people get rid of all

suffering and pain in their life. They believe this is

possible by getting rid of all greed, hatred and ignorance

in your life.

They believe in Karma – the idea that there are good

and bad consequences to our actions. Good actions

create good karma and bad actions create bad karma.

They also believe in reincarnation: The idea that the

cause and effect chain of our actions leads to an

endless cycle of life, death and rebirth. You can only

escape this endless cycle by being Enlightenment

through the Buddhist teachings

Life of the Buddha

The Four Sights- Buddha wanted to see the world so left the palace grounds and travelled into town. He saw four sights: An old man, a sick man, a corpse and a holy man. The first three sights opened Buddhas eyes to a whole new world that he had never seen, A world with suffering. In the fourth sight, he saw his destiny. The sights were a life changing experience for the Buddha. He learnt that there is suffering in the world and this made him want to find a way to overcome dukkha and reach enlightenment. He was inspired by the holy man's serenity. Enlightenment - Buddha realised that he should not go to extremes (e.g. starvation) but should adopt a happy medium or middle path. He then began to eat and live in moderation. Buddha was still spiritually hungry. He wanted spiritual food and self- realisation. It was underneath the shadow of a large tree that his spiritual hunger was fulfilled. This tree is now known as the Bodhi tree. He sat in a meditative mood underneath the tree from morning to sunset, with determination 'Let me die. Let my body perish. Let my flesh dry up. I will not get up from this seat till i get full illumination'. He plunged himself into deep meditation. It was through this practice that he attained Nirvana (liberation from a cycle of rebirth). His face shone too- he was full of knowledge. He had achieved enlightenment (full understanding of way things are in life.
