Buddhism began in ancient India and spread across much of Asia. Its teachings are called the dharma, and followers aim toward enlightenment, an end to suffering described as nirvana. Karma holds that actions carry consequences. The community of practitioners is the sangha, a monk may live in a monastery, and lay followers keep a set of precepts. Compassion runs through it all, and the lotus is a common symbol. This word puzzle gathers eleven of them.
