- In his early life, Buddha was very wealthy and lived a luxurious life. Even though he was very wealthy, he was very shelter, meaning he didn’t know anything about sickness, pain, death, or suffering.
- When Buddha was older, he got married, and had a child. At one point, he decided to go out of the palace for the first time. When he goes out he sees, a sick person, an old person, and a corpse. He then decides to go into the wilderness, ands becomes a homeless holy man, and talked with others in order to end suffering.
- Buddha reached enlightenment by meditating for 40 days. Once he was enlightened, he meditated for 40 more days. He did all of this to end suffering.
- Dukkha: Suffering exists. Examples of suffering are, pain, old age, disease, death, frustration, loneliness, and embarrassment.
- An example of the 8 fold path is right contemplation. Right contemplation is basically having the right mindset, concentration, and intention, when meditating.
- The Tripitaka is the holy book of the Buddhists. Buddhists believe that they have the best outlook on the world. They don’t believe that Buddha was a god, he was a human. The Tripitaka has 3 sections, Vinaya Pitaka (the Discipline Basket) - A rule book for monks and nuns, the Sutta Pitaka, (the teaching basket)- the experiences of Buddha, and the Abhidhamma Pitaka (the Higher Doctrine Basket)- An explanation on the teaching of Buddha. Most of these are called Sutras.
