Understanding Buddhism and Enlightenment

“Why do so many people sit still and call it life-changing? Meditation. And yep—that’s Buddhism.

So what is Buddhism, really? It started over 2,500 years ago with a regular guy

named Siddhartha… who woke up and became the Buddha. Does Buddhism say life is amazing

all the time? Not at all. It straight-up says life includes suffering. But plot twist—suffering

isn’t permanent. So how do you fix it? By calming your mind,

letting go of cravings, and practicing mindfulness and compassion. Do Buddhists worship a god?

Nope. Buddhism is more about understanding yourself. And the final goal?

Enlightenment—aka peace, clarity, and freedom from the stress cycle.”
