Buddhism is the search for enlightenment, or nirvana. This is a state of mind in which a person is freed from everyday demands, confusion, and emotional attachment to things. Buddhists try to achieve enlightenment by developing wisdom, morality, and concentration. Many buddhists do not believe in a god. Buddhists believes that a person;s actions give them good or bad karma.
