1What is the basic principle emphasized at the heart of Buddhist teaching?
A.The soul is immortal
B.Suffering exists and can be ended
C.God is supreme
D.Vedic sacrifice is essential
Explanation: Buddhism centres on the problem of dukkha (suffering) and its cessation through the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path. It does not teach an immortal soul, a supreme creator God, or sacrificial ritual as the core path.
2The Four Noble Truths are primarily associated with which Indian philosophical tradition?
A.Jainism
B.Buddhism
C.Vedanta
D.Samkhya
Explanation: The Four Noble Truths (catvāri āryasatyāni) are the foundational teaching of the Buddha: the truth of suffering, its origin, its cessation, and the path to cessation.
3Who taught the Noble Eightfold Path as the way to end suffering?
A.Mahavira
B.The Buddha
C.Kapila
D.Kanada
Explanation: The Buddha taught the Noble Eightfold Path (āryāṣṭāṅgamārga) as the fourth Noble Truth — the practical path leading to the cessation of suffering (nirvāṇa).
4How many Noble Truths does classical Buddhist teaching present?
A.Two
B.Three
C.Four
D.Eight
Explanation: There are four Noble Truths: (1) there is suffering, (2) there is a cause of suffering, (3) there is cessation of suffering, and (4) there is a path to that cessation.
5Which of the following is NOT a central emphasis of early Buddhist teaching?
A.Right view
B.Compassion
C.Non-attachment
D.Devotion to a creator God as the highest duty
Explanation: Early Buddhism emphasizes right view, compassion (karuṇā), non-attachment, and the path out of dukkha. It does not make devotion to a creator God the supreme religious duty.
6In Buddhism, the doctrine that everything arises in dependence on causes and conditions is called:
A.Anekāntavāda
B.Pratītyasamutpāda
C.Satkāryavāda
D.Vivartavāda
Explanation: Pratītyasamutpāda (dependent origination) holds that phenomena arise dependently on causes and conditions; nothing exists independently in isolation.
7The Buddhist doctrine of anattā (anātman) denies which claim?
A.That suffering exists
B.That a permanent, unchanging self (ātman) exists
C.That ethical action matters
D.That meditation is useful
Explanation: Anattā/anātman teaches that there is no permanent, unchanging self or soul; what we call a person is a changing aggregation of processes (the skandhas).
8In the Four Noble Truths, craving (tṛṣṇā) is primarily identified as:
A.The final goal of practice
B.The origin or cause of suffering
C.A form of pure knowledge
D.The same as nirvāṇa
Explanation: The second Noble Truth identifies the origin of suffering as craving/thirst (tṛṣṇā) and related attachments that fuel the cycle of dukkha.
9Which set correctly lists major limbs of the Noble Eightfold Path?
A.Right view, right speech, right action, right livelihood
B.Right sacrifice, right caste duty, right ritual purity
C.Right atomism, right categories, right inference only
D.Right monism, right Maya, right Brahman worship only
Explanation: The Eightfold Path includes right view, right intention, right speech, right action, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration.
10The Buddhist teaching of momentariness (kṣaṇikavāda) holds that:
A.All substances are eternal and unchanging
B.Reality consists of momentary, fleeting existents
C.Only Brahman is real and the world is fully eternal matter
D.Time does not exist at all in any sense
Explanation: Kṣaṇikavāda holds that conditioned phenomena are momentary — arising and ceasing in instants — rather than permanent substances.
