Answer
The main preaching of Gautam Buddha was as follows :

$(2)$ The greatest duty of all human beings is to treat all animals non-violently.
$(3)$ A human does not become great, from being born into a high family but becomes great by his/her karma (deeds). Therefore, discrimination between high and low should not be seen in society.
