Der Buddhismus zählt zu einer der größten Religionen der Menschheit. In seiner über 2000 Jahre alten Lehre geht es im Wesentlichen um die Entwicklung zweier Eigenschaften: Weisheit und Mitgefühl. Der Buddhismus beschreibt eine Welt, die sich ständig verändert und in der alles miteinander verbunden ist und in Beziehung steht. Buddhistische Spiritualität führt so zu einem natürlichen Mitgefühl mit allem, was leidet und zur Mitfreude am Glück der anderen. Die Suche nach der Wirklichkeit bleibt dabei jedoch immer die Sache des Einzelnen. Jeder wird ermutigt, dem Pfad so zu folgen, wie es ihm persönlich entspricht.
