Best Answer

Mahabharata is one of India's great epics, that describes the historic battle between two princes. The essence, of this epic is best summarised in the Bhagwad Gita, which is actually a conversation between Krishna and Arjuna in the battlefield. It teaches how to deal with your life, what your duties are and their consequences.

It seems to me that all teachings of the Buddha are underpinned by the four noble truths.

The Four Noble Truths are the fundamental teachings of the Buddha, they comprise:

  • Suffering - we suffer because we attach to things that are impermanent
  • This suffering has three causes - desire, hatred and delusion also known as attachment, aversion and ignorance.
  • We can end our own suffering by ceasing our attachment to impermanent things
  • The Buddha presents a way to end suffering through an Eightfold path

Morality in Buddhism should be seen in this context, as part of the eightfold path. In essence tools to lead to an end to suffering through the destruction of attachment and aversion.
