A Buddhist is a person who follows the Dhamma-Vinaya (conduct and discipline) preached by the Mahabodhi, Siddhartha Gautama. A Buddhist believes the Four Noble Truths (Pali: cattāri ariyasaccāni), which are:
1. DUKKHA - Life is full of suffering
2. SAMUDHAYA - Suffering is caused by unrequited desire
3. NIRODHA - To eliminate suffering one must eliminate desire
4. MAGGA - The cessation of suffering is achieved by following Ariya-Atthangika-Magga, the Noble Eightfold Path

The Noble Eightfold Path consists of the following eight categories of proper conduct, divided into three broad areas:
# Widsom--Panna

* Right Understanding--samma ditthi

* Right Thought--samma sankappa

# Morality--Sila

* Right Speech--samma vaca

* Right Action--samma kammanta

* Right Livelihood--samma ajiva

# Concentration--Samadhi

* Right Effort--samma vayama

* Right Mindfulness--samma sati

* Right Concentration--samma samadhi

Although there are different schools of Buddhism, the above are the core beliefs of the faith.

One who follows the teachings of Buddha, and does not believe but seeks out the truth and acquires knowledge instead of faith. One who is aware of reincarnation, samsara, dukkha, and nirvana.

(Noun) A follower of the Buddha, a spiritual teacher born in India c 563 BCE, or (adjective) relating to Him or His teachings. A Buddhist is defined not by belief but by their commitment to and faith (confidence) in a path of spiritual development and liberation that includes

(1)The practice of meditation in order to achieve mental and emotional integration and insight;
(2) The observance of ethical guidelines to train oneself in simplicity, mindfulness and nonviolence; and cultivate an attitude of universal, unconditional loving kindness; and
(3) The development of wisdom based on testing for oneself the teachings of the Buddha. These include the teaching that everything (including ourselves) arises in dependence on other conditions and, in consequence, is changing and open to the rest of existence, rather than ultimately separately existing.

The path leads to a state of Enlightenment or Nirvana, a state of complete freedom from all limitation and suffering.

"Just as the great ocean has but one taste, the taste of salt, so my teachings have but one taste, the taste of freedom." ( - the Buddha)

An individual who believes and follows the teachings of Siddhartha Guatama, a former prince who, they say, stepped out of his castle and had an epiphany,and saw the hate in the world, and set out to rid the world of evil needs. The basis of Budhism is to rid yourself of wants, and only focus on the essentials of life, meditation. When you had finally achieved these things, you would reach Nirvana, or true happiness. Budhists are often kind and loving souls, who believe there is potential in everything. Budhists tend to also follow the teachings of Confucius.

Lots of people think that Buddhism is a religion, but in fact some Christians, Catholics, Muslims, and Jews (just to name a few religions) follow the Buddhist philosophy.

I say this because everyone seems to think that Buddhism is purely a religion. It's more like a way of life, but you can find some mysticism in it.

a person who follows the religion of buddhism. remember that there are many different sects or types of buddhism and that you should't link them all together
