Buddhism???

I always knew why there was a reason i was drawn to Thailand.



You scored as Buddhism. Your beliefs most closely resemble those of Buddhism. Do more research on Buddhism and possibly consider becoming Buddhist, if you are not already.
In Buddhism, there are Four Noble Truths: (1) Life is suffering. (2) All suffering is caused by ignorance of the nature of reality and the craving, attachment, and grasping that result from such ignorance. (3) Suffering can be ended by overcoming ignorance and attachment. (4) The path to the suppression of suffering is the Noble Eightfold Path, which consists of right views, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right-mindedness, and right contemplation. These eight are usually divided into three categories that base the Buddhist faith: morality, wisdom, and samadhi, or concentration. In Buddhism, there is no hierarchy, nor caste system; the Buddha taught that one's spiritual worth is not based on birth.

Buddhism? Interesting. I just wrote on my blog about suffering, and love, and how i believe that love is linked to suffering. Read it if you like :) My rendition of the 4 rules they had:

(1) Love is suffering.

(2) All suffering is caused by ignorance of what God had advised. It is the imperfection of ouselves seeking a perfect love from each other but never being able to achieve it because we are not perfection, and we cannot deliver or even accept it wholly, even though we desire it so. That is what causes suffering.

(3) Suffering can be ended by overcoming death on the cross. Thankfully, we didn't have to do that.

(4) The path to the freedom of suffering is the acknowledgement of that overcoming, and the actions and decisions that necessarily follow.
