Abstract
The teaching of Gotama Buddha, which aims to deliver the ordinary people from their concrete suffering, tends to observe phenomena of human life more realistically than his forerunners and endeavors to elucidate the causality of existence in Saṁsāra without admitting the existence of “the eternal subject of existence”, i.e. Ātman, thus resulting in the doctrine of Pratītyasamutpāda.
