Mission 4

Buddhism is a major world religion with about 500 million followers. It was founded by Siddhartha Gautama, who became known as the Buddha, which means "the Enlightened One." Buddhism does not focus on worshiping gods, so it is often considered non-theistic rather than monotheistic or polytheistic. Buddhists follow the teachings of the Buddha, which are collected in various texts, including the Tripitaka and the Sutras. The Dharma Wheel, a symbol with eight spokes, represents the Buddha’s teachings and the Eightfold Path, which guides Buddhists on how to live a moral and mindful life. Buddhists often gather in temples or monasteries for meditation, study, and reflection. Buddhism teaches that by following the Buddha's path, people can achieve enlightenment and end suffering.

Mission 4

Hinduism is one of the world’s oldest religions and has around 1.2 billion followers. It is a polytheistic religion, meaning that Hindus believe in many gods and goddesses, with each one representing different aspects of life. However, many Hindus also believe in a single universal spirit called Brahman, from which all gods come. Hinduism doesn’t have a single founder, and it developed over thousands of years in India. Hindus have several holy books, with the most important being the Vedas and the Bhagavad Gita. Hindus worship in temples, where they pray and make offerings to their gods. The Om (ॐ) symbol is very important in Hinduism, representing the sound of the universe. Major beliefs include karma (the idea that your actions affect your future) and reincarnation (the belief that after death, the soul is reborn). Hindus aim to achieve moksha, or liberation from the cycle of rebirth.
