chosen.content: No, Buddhists do not believe in magic, as it contradicts their philosophy. Buddhists rely on reason, science and logic to understand the natural world, and don't accept things based on empty hopes or wishes. The teachings of Buddhism are based on observation and personal experience, so they only accept ideas that can be verified.

rejected.content: No, Buddhism does not promulgate any "magical stuff" as you have described. In fact, Buddhism is more about understanding the true nature of reality, cultivating insight and virtuous qualities, and utilizing different practices and techniques to bring about beneficial changes in life. Furthermore, Buddhism doesn't prescribe any faith-based beliefs, rather encourages an examination of one's own experiences with the teachings to arrive at the truth. Thus, Buddhism is a rational and peaceful faith that brings about personal liberation, instead of relying on mysterious or magical activities.
