what are the three main beliefs of buddhism
Buddhism The Four Truths express the basic orientation of Buddhism: we crave and cling to impermanent states and things, which is dukkha,[47] "incapable of satisfying"[web 2] and painful.[48][49] This keeps us caught in saṃsāra, the endless cycle of repeated rebirth, dukkha and dying again.[note 8] But there is a way to liberation from this endless cycle[55] to the state of nirvana, namely following the Noble Eightfold Path.[note 9]
Indian religions Indian religions, sometimes also termed as Dharmic faiths or religions, are the religions that originated in the Indian subcontinent; namely Hinduism, Jainism, Buddhism and Sikhism.[web 1][note 1] These religions are also all classified as Eastern religions. Although Indian religions are connected through the history of India, they constitute a wide range of religious communities, and are not confined to the Indian subcontinent.[web 1]
