Best Answer

Buddhist beliefs are summed up in the Four Noble Truths:

  • All life entails suffering
  • All suffering is cause by desire
  • Suffering can be eliminated by eliminating desire
  • The route to this state is achieve by following the Eightfold Path

Buddhism sees mechanisms such as reincarnation as a tool in achieving the life experience to understand and apply the Eightfold Path. They also see the termination of the cycle of death and rebirth as a state of selfless awareness known as Nirvana.

Buddhists do not believe in gods, prophets, salvation, divine intervention, prayer

Like any religion or philosophy there are many more "fine points" which vary between sects
