The question implies that the asker is quite confused about what Buddhism means.
'Buddhism' means 'the teachings of the Buddha'.
What the Buddha had mainly taught (the main constituents of Buddhism) are:
- To avoid all bad (evil) deeds; to do good deeds; to cleanse one's mind
- To have a good mind or keep concentration in mind; to keep morality; to have a strong insight (i.e., the Threefold Training, viz. ethics (morality or virtue), concentration and wisdom (insight)) It is also known as "The Eightfold Path" (the path to Nirvana.)
- The law of cause and effect (karma); if good (bad) deed is done by one, good (bad) outcome definitely occurs to one; the Four Noble Truths (obeying this law)
- Three marks of existence: Annica (impermanence), Dukkha (suffering), Anatta (no permanent self or soul)
