Buddhism does not teach of “God”? So why do Buddhists pray?
“Buddhists don’t pray, but they do have devotional meditation practices which could
be compared to praying. “http://www.buddhanet.net/

The Buddha Mind Monastery and the

are both Mahayana – even though one is Chinese and one is Vietnamese.
And I’m supposed to care about this
because…?
Even though Mahayana Buddhism is the most common form of Buddhism today, it has changed some since Buddha’s time.
(Okay, maybe it’s changed a lot.)
Oh?
Within a couple of hundred years after the life of the Buddha, there were two
branches of Buddhism:Theravada Buddhism
and Mahayana Buddhism.
*yawn*
Mahayana Buddhism is mainly Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese.

Theravada Buddhism:focused more on the historical Buddha
and
Mahayana Buddhism:focused more on spiritual life forms
TIME OUT!
Explain!
Mahayana Buddhists focus a lot on spiritual life forms:
They believe there have been many Buddhas.
The most recent, born in India, is not the first and
will not be the last.
So at Mahayana Buddhist temples, you will see paintings and images
representing past Buddhas and future Buddhas.
They believe in reincarnation (like all Buddhists). But they also believe that individuals who have become pure enough to enter Nirvana can choose to delay –
to remain spiritually on earth to help humans.
So at Mahayana Buddhist temples, you will see paintings and images
representing Bodhisattvas.
These spirits are called Bodhisattvas, and they are greatly loved because they chose to stay
here and help humans.

You will also see one or two temple “guards” – ugly dudes whose job is to scare away evil and
keep visitors safe.
