    “According to Buddhism, our ideas of God and Soul
    are false and empty”
    –Walpola Rahula
    “ The Buddhist is an atheist and Buddhism in both its
    Theravada and Mahayana forms is atheism”
    –K N Jayatilleke
    “Within [Buddhist] philosophical worldview it is almost imposible to
    have any room for an atemporal, eternal, absolute truth. Nor is it
    possible to accommodate the concept of divine Creation.”
    –Dalai Lama
    Parliament of World Religions in Chicago 1993
    “The Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, was not God or a god. 
    He was a human being who attained full enlightenment through
    meditation and showed us the path of spiritual awakening and
    freedom.  Therefore, Buddhism is not a religion of God.”
    “ Therefore, for these pragmatic reasons, belief in a personal God is not prohibited as long as it
    does not become an obstacle, but an incentive to the moral and spiritual development”
    -KN Jayatileke
    What is Man

    elements (pancakkhanda)

    2. perasaan (vedanakkhanda)

    3. persepsi (sannakkhanda)

    4. pikiran (samkharakkhanda)

    5. kesadaran (vinnanakkhanda)
    “The Buddha, the founder of Buddhism, was not God or a god. 
    He was a human being who attained full enlightenment through
    meditation and showed us the path of spiritual awakening and
    freedom.  Therefore, Buddhism is not a religion of God.”

    There is no “I” nor “you”

    It is the result of illusion, ignorance, and


    the cause of suffering
    Life under Karma
    Sesuai dengan benih yang telah ditabur, begitulah buah yang akan
    dipetiknya. Ia yang berbuat baik akan menerima kebaikan, dan ia yang
    berbuat jahat akan menerima kejahatan".
    (Samyutta Nikâya, 1.293)

    Harus ditekankan bahwa hukum kamma berjalan secara otonomi. Hukum ini
    tidak dijalankan oleh suatu Tuhan Yang Maha Kuasa yang membagikan
    ganjaran dan hukuman, melainkan berfungsi dengan sendirinya, sesuai
    dengan sifat hukum itu sendiri, yang intrinsik di dalam proses kosmik.
     (Petikan Anguttara Nikaya 1 hal 31)
