Abstract :
The doctrine of the existence of suffering is a central teaching inBuddhist thought. To stop suffering, Buddha himself presented theEightflod Path, but after him other pathes, such as the path ofbuddhisatva also gained recognition. The doctrine of boddhisatva inits primitive from was derived from historical and mythological lifeof shakyamuni, however, its later development was due toMahayanism.This path begins with boddhicitta or "the awakened mind" andtaking the boddhisatva vow, and continues with passing through tenstages or bhumis, In each stage the boddhisatva perfects a paramitaor perfection in himself and finnaly becomes a buddha.
