Theravāda

theravada

Called 'School of the Elders', it adheres to the oldest traditions of Buddhism. It rejects the Mahāyāna Sūtra and thus the many Bodhisattva and the Bodhisattva path itself as being available to all. Instead, it focuses on the monastic community as the superior way of achieving enlightenment.
