The Four Noble TruthsThe Four Noble Truths
1. To live is to suffer– Life in this world (samsara) is full
throughout with dissatisfaction, etc. (dukkha)
– Experience of things not being quite right, “out of joint”, in need of repair
– ALL living is dukkha, whether pleasant or unpleasant… Why?
– Dukkha, therefore, is unavoidable
