<strong>Buddhism</strong> Basics• Attempts to give answers to life’s s questions• Emphasis on “things to do” rather than “things to believe”• Avoid speculative questions (creation, Supreme power,afterlife) since there was little possibility of definitive answers instead spend time attempting to deal with the harshrealities presented by life here <strong>and</strong> now• Tolerant to any religion that allows a person to find “truth” ofhimself/ herself. Believe that setting an example which othersmay emulate.• ULTIMATE GOAL end suffering <strong>and</strong> attain absolute peace<strong>and</strong> joy
