The Four Noble Truths

Although “Buddhism” refers to various sets of religious beliefs and

practices, there are four important truths or doctrines (dharma) expressed in all the streams of Buddhist thought.

#1 “Suffering”“Life is suffering.”

physical and psychological pain. Lack of satisfaction.

Disappointment. Suffering is inevitable. It is a general claim about all human life,

not a claim that every moment is suffering.

#2 “Attachment”

The origin of suffering is attachment to or the desire

for things, Materialism Desire + Materialism = suffering. Desire is closely connected to individuality. No individual can be free

from desire.

#3 “Dispassion”

Teaches to Remove DESIRE! If desire is the cause of suffering, remove desire and you remove

suffering. Absolute freedom from

desire is called Nirvana.

**This is roughly equivalent to Moksha in Hinduism.**

#4 “The PathThe path to Nirvana is in

actions and thoughts that lie in between excessive

materialism and excessive self-denial. This is

expressed in the eightfold path

toward enlightenment.
