The main teachings of the Buddha were:
The Buddha taught that life is full of suffering and unhappiness. This is caused because we have cravings and desires (which cannot be fulfilled).
Sometimes, even if we get what we desire, we are not satisfied (permanently) and want (or desire) even more and more (or other things). The Buddha described this as thirst or tanha.
The Buddha taught that thirst or tanha or constant craving could be removed by following moderation in everything.
He also taught people to be kind and to respect the fives of others, including animals.
The Buddha believed that the result of our actions (called Karma), whether good or bad, affect us both in this life and the next.
He also encouraged, people to think for themselves rather than to follow simply what he (the Buddha) said.
The Buddha taught in Prakrit, which was the language of the ordinary people, so that everybody could understand his message.

The peninsular plateau is a vast table land made up of old crystalline, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. It is one of oldest landmasses of the world as it a part of the gondwana land and was formed when the indo-australian plates collided with the eurasian plates. This plateau consists of broad and shallow valleys and rounded hills. The plateau is very useful as it contains minerals.
Divisions:
1. Central highlands : This part lies to the north of the narmada river and covers a major part of malwa plateau. On the south of Central highlands, it is bounded by vindhyan range and on the northwest, it is bounded by aravali hills. Further in the westward parts, it merges with the deserts of rajasthan. The slope is from south west to north east as the rivers flow in that direction. The central highlands is wider in the west and narrower in the east. The east ward extensions are known as bundelkhand and baghelkhand. The Chotanagpur plateau is further in the east.
2. The Deccan Pateau: This plateau is in the southern part of river narmada. In the north, the Satpura range flanks its broad base while in the eastward part, there is mahadev, kaimur hill, and maikal range.
The deccan plateau is higher in west than east so rivers flow eastwards. Prominent hills are Garo, khasi and jaintia hills.
The western and eastern ghats mark the western and eastern edges of the deccan plateau. The western ghats are more high than eastern ghats. They are continuous and can only be crossed through passes only. It lies parallel to the western coast. Major peaks are doda betta and anai mudi. The eastern ghat run parallel to the eastern coast and are less high than western ghats. They are discontinuous because of the rivers draining in the bay of bengal. Mahendragiri is the highest peak of Eastern ghats.
