Buddhist practices

Buddhist practices focus on cultivating mindfulness, ethical behavior, and mental clarity to reduce suffering and foster compassion. Common practices include meditation to develop awareness and calmness, ethical conduct such as refraining from harm, and wisdom through studying teachings. Many also engage in rituals, chanting, and acts of kindness. These practices aim to understand the nature of reality, manage desires, and foster inner peace. While variations exist across traditions, the core goal is to attain liberation from suffering and realize one's interconnectedness with all beings.
