Summary:
Buddhism
challenges some of the most important Western ideas about God, human life, and the self. In
Buddhism
, there is no single almighty God who created the world. Instead,
Buddhism
teaches that all of life is suffering, and there is no permanent self. Moreover, it teaches that in accepting that all life is suffering, bliss can be achieved in this life.
Buddhism
's core philosophy that nothing is permanent--all is change--has made it an astonishingly lively and adaptable religion.
Buddhism
has transformed the civilizations of India and much of Asia, and has now become a vital part of Western culture.
