This week, we’ve been learning all about Buddhism in our RE Drop Down morning.
We learnt about where the religion originated, how it began and what is important to people who follow it.
Buddhists follow the teaching of Buddha, a prince who saw suffering, greed and pain in the world around him. He began to live a modest life and renounced his privileged existence. He achieved enlightenment.
Meditation and karma are really important to Buddhists. They believe if you live a good life and make good choices, you will be reincarnated into a positive new existence.
We created some drama to show how good karma can affect a person’s rebirth, according to Buddhists.
