The first Noble Truth is that suffering exists. This might seem like a negative thing to say, but it's actually a very important realization. By acknowledging that suffering exists, we can start to understand why it happens and what we can do to overcome it.

The second Noble Truth is that the cause of suffering is craving and attachment. When we crave things like material possessions, fame, or even just a feeling of happiness, we often end up feeling disappointed or dissatisfied when we don't get what we want. This is because our cravings are never truly satisfied, and we're always left wanting more.

The third Noble Truth is that there is a way to end suffering. This is where the teachings of the Buddha can really help us. By following his guidance, we can learn to let go of our cravings and attachments and find true peace and happiness.

The fourth and final Noble Truth is the path to the end of suffering. This is a set of principles and practices that the Buddha taught to help us overcome our cravings and attachments and find lasting peace and happiness. These principles include things like mindfulness, compassion, and wisdom.

So, in summary, the Four Noble Truths of Buddhism teach us that suffering exists, that it is caused by craving and attachment, that there is a way to end suffering, and that the path to the end of suffering is to follow the principles and practices taught by the Buddha. By understanding and applying these truths in our lives, we can find true peace and happiness.

Thanks for watching!

"Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive"

~ H.H. Dalai Lama

“It has become almost impossible to say, ‘I don’t care about future generations,’ ‘I don’t care about poverty in the midst of plenty’ and ‘I don’t care if there are 200 million climate refugees in 2030. Altruism should not be relegated to the realm of noble Utopian thinking maintained by a few big-hearted, naïve people. On the contrary, it is a determining factor of the quality of our existence, now and to come. We must have the insight to recognize this and the audacity to proclaim it.The altruism revolution is on its way. Let us all be part of it.”

~ Matthieu Ricard

"All people are united in our pursuit of happiness and our desire to avoid suffering. This is the source of humanity’s greatest achievements. For that reason, we should begin to think and act on the basis of an identity rooted in the words 'we humans.'”

~ HH Dalai Lama
