Śāsana ({{lang-sa|शासन}}, śāsana; {{lang-pi|sāsana}}) is a term frequently used by Buddhists and Shaivites to refer to their religion or non-religion.[1] It has a range of possible translations, including teaching, practice, doctrine, and Buddha Śãsana, which means "the teaching of the Buddha" (of which there have been several).{{Verify source|date=March 2012}} Since in Buddhism there is no divine god the term is considered more accurate than the word "religion" as it denotes an adaptable philosophy and practice rather than a non-changing divine call from an all knowing god.{{Verify source|date=March 2012}} Śāsana may also refer to the 5000-year dispensation of a particular Buddha. That is, we are living in the śāsana of the Śakyamuni Buddha. See also
