What Buddhists believe in is this
The Four Noble Truths, which are:
1) There is suffering (discontentment, unhappiness) in the world
2) There are specific causes of this suffering.
3) There is a state (a mindset, a way of life) where suffering ceases.
4) There is a path (actions, practices) to attain this state of freedom from
suffering.
In general what Buddha taught us is to
1) Avoid taking the life of any sentient being
2) Avoid taking anything that is not given (no stealing)
3) Avoid sexual misconduct
4) Avoid lying, or any harmful speech.
5) Abstain from taking intoxicants
The Buddha laid out the Eightfold Path as what he described as "the Middle Way" to reach enlightenment. This method is less severe than the path that The Buddha followed and avoids the extremes that he tried and failed at to reach enlightenment.
The eightfold path consists of:
1. Right View
2. Right Intention (thought)
3. Right Speech
4. Right Action
5. Right Livelihood
6. Right Effort
7. Right Mindfulness
8. Right Concentration.
