Here is your answer
There are no Buddhist gods per se, but that doesn't mean there are no gods. The Buddha taught that there are six realms comprising the circular world of becoming: Realm of gods.
Buddhism is sometimes called an "atheistic" religion, although some of us prefer "non-theistic"--meaning that believing in a God or gods really isn't the point. But it's certainly the case that there are all kinds of god-like creatures and beings called devas populating the early scriptures of Buddhism.
In the Buddhist tradition, there are no gods. Buddhism is specifically a non-theistic religion. That’s the way Buddha wanted it. He created this religion in opposition to Hinduism, the religion of his upbringing.
He was against the caste system and the numerous gods each family was known for worshiping or paying homage to. His philosophy is very humanistic and was used as a way to help his fellow man seek enlightenment without divine aid.
