I asked him " Who do Buddhists pray to?" and he told me that we actually do not pray to God. Buddhists do not ask God to give us a lot of money or gold, but when we go to pray we just think of what the good and bad things that we had done. We believe that if you did good things, you will be rewarded.","dateCreated":"1252286972","smartDate":"Sep 6, 2009","userCreated":{"username":"ratanaU","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/ratanaU","imageUrl":"https:\/\/ssl.wikicdn.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"}},{"id":"14004673","body":"Oh thats good then, I guess a lot of people just do not wholely understand the religion they take to pratice.","dateCreated":"1252287167","smartDate":"Sep 6, 2009","userCreated":{"username":"MichelleUm","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/MichelleUm","imageUrl":"https:\/\/ssl.wikicdn.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"}},{"id":"15018814","body":"WOAH! that's super cool, I believe that Buddhism people are very reflective and joyful people.
