I'm not sure what you mean. Buddhism is one of the world's great religions. A member of this group is called a Buddhist. Some people say that Buddhism is a philosophy rather than a religion, but whether you call it one or the other, it has a founder (Siddhartha Gautama Shakyamuni, better known by his honorary title "The Buddha"), sacred scriptures (the Sutras and other writing), a long history, a group of believers who spread it to various countries, and particular tenets and beliefs that its members share. How it became a religion was a gradual process, after its founder died: his followers codified his beliefs (Buddha left no writings) and wrote down his teachings. From there, there were Buddhist teachers and scholars who created the rituals and customs that were used by believers. And in time, Buddhism became one of the religious traditions of the world, recognized along with Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and other faiths.
