Buddhism the one of the world’s major religions. But outside of Asia it isn’t very well known. What is Buddhism? Who was the Buddha? What do Buddhists Believe? Thats what we’ll find out in this episode of Cogito.
We will learn about the life of the Buddha. The 4 Noble truths that he taught will be explained. The way to Nirvana, the Noble Eightfold Path will also be explained.
Have you ever wondered what’s the difference between Theravada and Mahayana Buddhism. You won’t have to wonder for much longer :D
While I have tried to explain Buddhism in a simple and understandable way it is important to note that I cannot cover everything in a ten minute video. If you would like to research more here are some links to the books I used to research this episode. Thanks you for watching.
