'''Buddhism''' is a religious system whose followers seek liberation from suffering through adherence to the teachings of the Buddha [[Siddhartha Gautama]]. To Buddhists, sentient beings are trapped in an eternal cycle of death and rebirth, (<i>samsara</i>) , characterized by suffering (<i>dukkha</i>). Buddhism provides a practical set of teachings (the <i>dharma</i>) designed to help sentient beings escape samsara and achieve <i>nirvana</i>, a state of freedom from suffering.
