    ok then i"ll give some answers i a simple way....K
    1. Do good u'll receive good = karma
    2. after life depends on Karma..
    3. Middlepath= samabara jeewithaya. buddha followed it throughout his life.... too much discomfort and too much of comfort makes you weaker
    4. its not necessary to go temple on poya days... but people go there with respect... buddhism never forces people to sacrifice anything as other religions do... as i said earlier... Do good and receive its benifits
    5. we worship him cz we respect him and because he is a teacher to the world..
    6. all depends on karma... birth after death is also a part of it... and human soul is the only way to Nirvana... being a human also depends on karma...

    I didnt get this fron any site.... this is what i know... hope u understand it... Tc

    If you say "lot of good Karma" Can you please quantify it so that I can understand???

    thanks

    karma decides your next birth if someone who wants to attain nirvana is born as a dog theres nothing much to do as a dog for the ending of suffering a dogs mentality cant handle things like the human brain handle and some other animals are better in that too..the path should be laid first and being born in some place that is accessible to Dhamma taught by any Buddha is considered a very good result of good karma, and being born on Buddha times is even better. Thats why good karma is important
