Let’s start somewhere.
Buddhism is not a faith or religion it is a philosophy, you can believe in any deity/religion you wish and still be a Buddhist.
All there really is are the 4 noble truths and the 8 fold path, everything derives from this
Truth 1: Life is hard, we are fragile and subject to change.
Truth 2: Our anxiety [suffering] derives from responding to the challenge.
Truth 3: A peaceful existence is possible
Truth 4: to end this suffering there is an eightfold path put simply:-
I] Realise the cause of our suffering
ii] Be motivated to end this suffering
iii] When communicating speak with clarity.
iv] Behave transparently.
v] Support yourself in a wholesome way.
vi] Cultivate a peaceful mindset
vii] Be focused and mindful.
vii] Be attentive.
Basically, whole libraries have been filled with how to do the above.
If you can be wise enough to do it all naturally [without the anxiety], nirvana awaits, you have become enlightened.
We pretty much all know life is hard.
Truth 2 is where some have fallen flat on their faces through greed. Unfortunately, this has led to disastrous consequences. Climate Crises which has driven the increase in suffering and anxiety worldwide. In this state of mind, we cannot progress.
Who is responsible for the suffering?
We all are, we must fight back by demonstrating that a peaceful end to this suffering is possible. Hence negating any end of times scenario.
Namaste.
