Buddhism

So here's my understanding of Buddhism. Buddha was a prince who left his princely life to search the end of dukkha(suffering/dissatisfaction/etc). He meditated and then found that in order for one to cease the dukkha, he must first understand the problem. He understood that dukkha was caused by unnecessary attachment to the illusory self/ego. He understood that inorder to get rid of it, you must have the right attitude/understanding/concentration/etc of the world view. He also understood that understanding those alone wont help and that you must also realize it(meditate).

How close am I to Buddhism?

You guys seem mad, here's a buddhist quote.


"Mind precedes all knowables,
mind's their chief, mind-made are they.
If with a corrupted mind
one should either speak or act
dukkha follows caused by that,
as does the wheel the ox's hoof."
