Being a Buddhist Bengali, I have been a follower of the teachings of Lord Buddha since the day I was introduced to it by my parents.
Buddhism is not just a religion; it is a way of life followed by millions of people in the East for over two thousand years. And there are still millions today who are switching their lives from a materialistic approach to seek answers in Buddhism.
Gautama Buddha was born a simple human being just like us into a Sakyan royal family. He was always surrounded by wealth and happiness. However, he never really felt truly happy from within. He always felt that something was missing which led him to renounce his wealth and kingdom in order to seek answers.
And once He was able to understand the cycle of life and its truth, He became The Buddha or The Awakened One.
We are often surrounded by things we have always wanted to achieve in life but we still fail to attain the state of true happiness.
Why is that?
Speaking from experience, I suggest you follow these 10 teachings of Lord Buddha to find a way of leading a happy and contented life:
