Best Answer

The first is that you take 'refuge' in the Buddha, his teachings or the Buddhist spiritual community. The second would be that you follow the basic ideas expressed in the Four Noble Truths, 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
