Buddhism encompasses a variety of traditions, beliefs, and practices largely based on the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, who is commonly known as the Buddha, meaning “the awakened one.” The Buddha lived and taught in the northeastern part of the Indian subcontinent and is believed to have died around the year 483 BCE. While there is no central authority in Buddhism, the religion’s traditions and practices vary greatly between different schools, sects, and regions. However, there are a few core beliefs and practices that are common to most Buddhists.<\/p>\n

Buddhism does not allow any sort of discrimination, be it race, gender, caste, or creed. Everyone is seen as equal in the eyes of the Buddha. Additionally, Buddhists are not allowed to take part in any sort of violence, including war. Instead, they are encouraged to follow the path of nonviolent resistance.<\/p>\n

Buddhists believe in conscious eating, which means being aware of what you are eating and making sure that it does not harm yourself or others. Buddha advised monks to avoid eating 10 kinds of meat for self-respect and protection: humans, elephants, horses, dogs, snakes, lions, tigers, boars and hyenas. Eating meat from these animals is considered disrespectful and harmful, so Buddhists typically do not eat them.<\/p>\n

The three physical evils of killing, stealing, and sexual misconduct are the most basic and fundamental transgressions that one can commit.

The three mental evils of greed, anger, and foolishness or the holding of mistaken views are also very detrimental to one’s well-being.<\/p>\n
