Unlike Christianity or Hinduism:
Buddhists do not believe in the idea of an eminent being, such as God.
They believe, instead, that the path to enlightenment is a cycle of reincarnation where the soul moves from birth to death and back to birth until it reaches Nirvana.
In order for a person to achieve Nirvana, the body must be detached from all human needs and desires.
Buddhism was founded in 535 BC

The Four Noble Truths
Suffering Exists Humans are pre-occupied with self-centeredness. This leads to pain, misery, sorrow, and unfulfillment.
Desire Causes Suffering We suffer because our ego dupes us into believing that we need that which is not permanent
Ending of Desire Brings the end to Suffering One must see things as they really are, not simply as they are for ourselves. We need a universal compassion toward all living creatures. This is not a belief, it is an action.
Ending of Desire Is Found Through the Eightfold Path: The observance of the truths of the Eightfold Path is at the heart of the Buddhist life.

Nirvana
Although Buddha’s immediate goal was to eliminate the cause of suffering, his ultimate goal was to become liberated from the cycle of death and rebirth.
This was to be accomplished by teaching how we can let go to our existence here on earth.
Once successful, karma no longer matters. We have reached enlightenment and therefore have experienced Nirvana.
