[VictorBush]

​

The fourth largest religion in this world is Buddhism, with about 365 million followers. It was founded in Northern India and later on became established in Sri Lanka, Thailand and Burma. There are 3 divisions of Buddhism Mahayana, Theravada, and Vajrayana. Buddhism even has its own language called Pali. Followers practice their religion in meditation halls or in temples. Buddhists have three symbols of their religion; these symbols are The Buddha, The Dharma and the Sangha. They are trained by moral discipline, wisdom and concentration and are brought up by learning that everything is temporary. The two main holidays are Buddha’s birthday and his enlightenment. It is a very interesting religion to learn about.
