∙ 9y agoEssentially, Buddhism has five rules or precepts. These include: To undertake the training to avoid taking the life of beings, to undertake the training to avoid taking things not given, to undertake the training to avoid sensual misconduct, to undertake the training to refrain from false speech, and to undertake the training to abstain from substances which cause intoxication and heedlessness.

Following the guidelines will allow you to lead a more skillful life, decrease your suffering and potentially help you direct yourself to enlightenment - but nobody will force you to follow them. The concept of rules which are enforced (if they aren't enforced, they aren't "rules") is foreign to Buddhism as the concept requires an overseeing deity - which Buddhism lacks.

What are the laws and rules in Buddhism?
There are no actual rules or laws in Buddhism because Buddha stated that no one should believe anything that comes to them unless it makes sense with them and their moral values. However, Buddhism does have Four Noble Truths and The Eight Fold Path which state how to reach enlightenment and many buddhists practice generosity, humility, humanity, honesty, respect, benevolence, responsibility, and many other humane values.
What do the rules of Buddhism mean?
It's hard to determine what the "Rules of Buddhism" are. The Four Noble Truths are an observation - Life is suffering. Suffering is caused by desire. Desire can be controlled to end suffering. This is done by following the Eightfold Path - but this is an observation not a rule. The Eightfold Path is a set of guidelines that one should follow to gain enlightenment, but they are not rules. Nobody is forced to follow them, nobody checks up on your progress or conformity. So Buddhism basically doesn't have rules. You do what you want, and you pay for your choices. The suggestions are there to help but the choice and the enforcement is all yours.
What did the Buddha conclude that life is ruled by?
Buddhism puts the control of your life in your own hands - no external force rules it.
