Assignment 1
Illustration A
Diamond Sutra
Buddhism: suffering comes from not wanting to suffer
Chinese Buddhist scripture
Buddha was at some point incarnated as a prince
Reincarnation
o Animals (no consciousness)
o Humans (consciousness)
o Demons/hungry hellish ghosts
Karma is an accumulation of bad actions that you need to get rid of
Buddha is not a god
Reaching enlightenment means ridding yourself of karma and your karmic soul dissolving
into nirvana
Earthly life is made up of poisons you need to resist ‘
You are stuck on earth until you reach nirvana
