The Buddhists Believe In Reincarnation
Buddha Met An Old Man, A Sick Man, And A Corpse.
A Lot Of What We Know About Ancient India Was Told To Us By British Historians.

On The Other Hand, Harijans Were At The Bottom.
Sudras Were The Second To WORST Class For The Indians

Buddha Taught The Four Noble Truths: 1:All Life Is Suffering 2:The Source Of Suffering Is Desire 3:To Stop Suffering, You Must Rid Yourself Of Desire. 4:All Of This Can Be Done By Following The Eightfold Path.
Ashoka Followed Buddha's Ways, But He Didn't Really Do It Right.
Buddha Could Not Get Out Of His House Because His Parent.... Dad, I Should Say Heard That The Kingdom Would Fall If He Ever Learnt About Suffering.
