Answer 2

Buddhism can be best described by The Four Noble Truths. These describe the true nature of existence, and the path to living in harmony with that nature. The teaching of the Four Noble Truths was the first sermon given by the Buddha after he became enlightened. This first teaching is called "Setting the Wheel of Dharma in motion". It was given by him to his four friends that he was practicing asceticism with before he became enlightened and all four were at once convinced of its truths. Therefore, the Four Noble Truths are the core of Buddhism.

The Four Noble truths are:

1) There is suffering (discontentment, unhappiness) in the world.

2) There are specific causes of this suffering (Greed, attachment, ego

clinging).

3) There is a state (a mind-set, a way of life) where suffering ceases.

4) There is a path (actions, practices) to attain this state of freedom from

suffering.

The Four Noble Truths, and what they infer, are Buddhism itself. They describe why Buddhism is needed, and what constitutes the essence of the practice of Buddhism. There may be various practices and ideas within Buddhism, but they are merely different expressions of the essence as expressed in the Four Noble Truths.
