Buddhism is one religion which is more practical, giving at most importance to human life. Buddha was a great mind scientist and had taught that our thought and focus should be confined to this world and to the improvement of our existence here.

Buddhism advocates that nothing is eternal and permanent. Everything is subjected to momentariness and undergo changes every moment. Thus, he did not venture any opinion on the existence of soul and God which other religions espouse to be eternal. He disliked such metaphysical discussions that are devoid of practical utility.

Buddhism tries to enlighten people that the human life is full of suffering and the suffering is due to craving /desires and shows the possibility of cessation of suffering and the path leading to the cessation of suffering.

Buddhism profess that in life nothing is unconditional; the existence of every event depends on some conditions. As the existence of every event depends on some conditions, there must be something which being there, our misery comes in to existence.

Thus, our suffering is life is due to birth, which is due to the will to be born, which is due to our mental clinging to objects. Clinging is due thirst or desire for objects, which is due to the sense-experience, which is due to sense-object contact, which is due to the six organs of cognition we possess (five senses + mind). These organs are dependent on the embryonic organism (composed of mind and body) that got developed due to some initial consciousness while being in the womb. This consciousness hails from the impression of the experience of past life which is due to ignorance of truth.

Buddha discovered that misery depends on some conditions. If those conditions are removed, misery would cease.

He advocated that there are two kinds of actions:

1) One that is done under the influence of attachment, hatred, infatuation

2) Another done without these.

If actions are of the first kind, our desire to cling to the world is strengthened and it generates the seeds of karma causing rebirth.  

He assured that it is possible to attain full liberation (Nirvana) in a single birth. With ignorance removed and passion is conquered, it brings a palpable benefit such as purity, good will, self possession, courage, unperplexed mind, unruffled temper etc.  

He had taught The Noble Path (Marga) that leads to cessation of sorrow that contains eight steps or rules and thus called Eight-fold Noble Truth. These eight steps are:

1) Right Views

2) Right Resolve

3) Right Speech  

4) Right Conduct

5) Right Livelihood

6) Right Effort

7) Right Mindfulness

8) Right Concentration

By pursuing a life through these eight steps, one can achieve perfect equanimity and cessation of sorrow and attain Nirvana.
