Buddhismo Theravada
Il Buddhismo theravada ("la scuola degli anziani") origina da una delle prime e più importanti scuole buddhiste nate dall'insegnamento di Siddhartha Gautama, la sthaviravada vibhajyavada del Buddhismo dei Nikaya. Questa forma di Buddismo è oggi diffusa nello Sri Lanka (Ceylon), in Birmania (BurmaMyanmar), in Thailandia (Siam), nel Laos e in Cambogia. Gli adepti possono essere definiti sthaviravadi o theravadin poiché la parola thera (in pali) e la parola sanscrita sthavira hanno il medesimo significato: "vecchio, autorevole". La dottrina, infatti, secondo questa tradizione, appartiene ai monaci anziani e venerandi, quelli che più s'avvicinavano al Buddha e che più di tutti rifuggirono da ogni innovazione di tipo teorico. I theravadin sostengono quindi che la loro dottrina corrisponda in pieno a quella enunciata dal Buddha.
