IT'S LIKE TO BE A
BUDDHIST.

to acquire ethical,moral and
mental discipline.
Buddhism is a very
old ancient
religion. It is

3. Mahayana Buddhism
not only tries to
get themselves into
a place of no
suffering but
everyone around
them as well.
Buddha's real
name is
Siddhartha
Gautama however
he is known to
most as Buddha.
There are two main types
of buddhism they are
Theravada Buddhism and
Mahayana Buddhism.
Theravada Buddhism mostly
focuses on finding peace
of
mind and meditation where
there is no suffering.
The top six buddhist countries
in the world are China,
Japan, Thailand, Vietnam,
Myanmar and Sri Lanka. All
together there are 370 million
followers
Buddha first
discovered
enlightenment
when he was
35, from his
experiences he
made the four
noble truths
mentioned
earlier.
4. The eight-spoked
dharmacakra is the
symbol of
buddhism. The eight
spokes represent
the Noble
eightfold path of
Buddhism.
The eightfold path is made up
of eight qualities made by
buddha that we buddhists must
live by. It was made to help
people acquire ethical, moral
and mental discipline.
5. Buddha's real
name is Siddhartha
Gautama however he
is known to most as
Buddha.

originated in
Northern India

6. Nirvana means 'to
blow out' This
phrases refers to
the end of greed,
hatred and delusion.
Buddha also came up
with several other
names for the
nirvana these were

(Khemam), Purity
(Suddhi), the Island
(Dipam) Freedom
(Mutti) and the

either go and beg

6 am he observed
the world to see if
there was anyone in
need.

ground bare

statue of
buddha and
chant.
