| Buddhism is the fourth largest religion in the world with around 365 million followers. The greatest meditation is a mind that lets go.The greatest medicine is the emptiness of everything.
Why is reincarnation a central theme in Buddhism? Who is the Dalai Lama? Why does Buddhism not believe in the existence of a soul?
Buddhism teaches that both humans and animals have an equal chance of enlightenment. A person's past karma is the basic determination for what he or she will be in the next life. Offerings of food , drink and money are made to Buddha's statues as a reminder of the generosity that should be exhibited in life.
