1. What is the ultimate goal of a person's life

It is happiness.

All the mess mankind does -and has done- is because this pursuit is wrongly achieved.

Gotama Buddha show the -definitive- Noble Path toward it.

and what is the process one takes during life to reach that goal? To live and follow the Four Noble Truths. They teach us the process and the goal, which is the everlasting cessation of Dukkha.

2. Please explain the process of the afterlife. I have never believed in such things and Buddha didn't taught any kind of after life doctrine. He show that in the unawakened mind there is birth of the illusion of a self and arises moment after moment; he taught how to end that mental state in this present life.

3. To the person responding, how active are you in Buddhism? What is your personal involvement and your understanding of it? Teachigs of Buddha are about practice and it has to be done while meditation and while being in daily life. The involvement with his doctrine is absolute as it is the confidence in it.

4. Do your personal beliefs correspond to the formal religious doctrine? Verified facts in live -not believes- have matched perfectly with what the Buddha taught. I don't feel that his teachings are about a religion. Surely it is a doctrine and it has a formality in terms of something well expounded and systematized to engage in gradual process of progressive achievements.
