Buddhism
From AnthroWiki
Buddhism is a religious doctrine and a path of spiritual training based based on the teachings of the historical Buddha Siddhattha Gotama. After Christianity, Islam and Hinduism, it forms the fourth largest religious community on Earth, but unlike the former, it is not a theistic religion, centred on the revelation and worship of one or more deities. The Buddha's teachings aim at the enlightenment (Bodhi) of man, through which he is to recognise the nothingness of existence and the illusory character of the I - or rather of the ego - and free himself forever from the sorrowful cycle of rebirths (samsara) in order to finally expire in Nirvana.
