Non-theistic religion that seeks spiritual purity and freedom from human concerns and desires (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

buddhism

(Other definitions for buddhism that I've seen before include "belief system" , "Asian religion based on teachings of Gautama" , "philosophy" , "Religion founded by Indian philosopher Gautama" , "religious teaching" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
