What do Buddhism and Christianity Teach About the Significance, Purpose And
Value of Human Life?
BUDDHISM
" The concern of Buddhism is with man rather than with the material universe.
The phenomenal world is held to be without substance and to be in a constant
condition of flux. Man himself is no less impermanent than the material
world."* ¾ Human life is subject to Anicca, the law of impermanence. This
means that nothing ever stays the same
To be born human is a rare opportunity. Buddhists take this notion so
seriously that a story was written for the sole purpose of illustrating it.
