Summarize the history of Buddhism and the life of Buddha.

Choose one of the following schools of Buddhism:

  • Theravada Buddhism
  • Mahayana Buddhism
  • Vajrayana Buddhism
  • Zen Buddhism–as a special school of Mahayana Buddhism

Write a 800- to 1,000-word paper that addresses the following:

  • Summarize the history of Buddhism and the life of Buddha.
  • Explain the basic teachings and moral aspects of Buddhism.
  • Explain what makes the school of Buddhism you selected unique.

Use your own words.  If you use a source, it must be in quotes and be listed in the bibliography.  Quotes should be less than 20% of the word count.  Use quotes to bolster what you have learned when researching the paper.  I know that your sources likely know their stuff; but I am grading you and want to make sure you know it as well.
