Abstract:

The Buddhism VI. It is a religion founded by the Goutama Budda in the century. The main goal of Goutama’s teaching is to get rid of the pain and suffering in man and reach the nirvana. While other religions claim that salvation can only be possible through worship and obedience to God, Buddha has not included any god in its system. Because of this structure, Buddhism, according to some researchers, is considered an atheist religion. But it cannot be said that Buddhism contains all the arguments of the thought called atheism. For although in the establishment period there was no God thought, some of the ecolles of Buddhism later divided many existences, including Buddha in the beginning. He also acknowledges that there are stages of existence of a supernatural group, as it is in the religions of law. In this regard, in relation to the understanding of God, it can be said that the Mahayana has a politeistic structure while the Buddhism's Teravada has a religious atheistic characteristics.
