Best Answer

The most basic facts about Buddhism are (1) the Buddhists believe in cause and effect ( Kamma and it's effect) (2) the Buddhists believe in previous and next lives (3) the Buddhists believe in the Buddha, his teachings (the Dhamma) and his disciples (the Sangha).
A Buddhist does not have to believe or disbelieve in God. There are Hindu Buddhists, Christian Buddhists and Jewish Buddhists as well as atheist Buddhists.

Buddhism is based on the desire to be happy without believing in anything untrue. Buddhists can choose a path they can believe in, from many different paths.

Buddhists promise not to lie.

A Buddhist has three refuges: what he or she knows about Buddha, the teachings of Buddha (dharma) and the community of other people following the same path (sangha).

Tantric Buddhism is a type of Buddhist practice favoured by Tibetan traditions, which involves transforming our base instincts into a path to enlightenment.
