ABSTRACT
Buddhism presents a specific worldview and way of living that leads to personal understanding, happiness, and a wholesome development. The Four Noble Truths were defined by the Buddha and became foundational in his post-enlightenment lectures. They form a sequence of insights: (1) suffering exists, (2) suffering has a cause, (3) suffering can be ended, and (4) the Noble Eightfold Path is the way to end suffering. This Path encompasses the following practices: Right View; Right Intention; Right Speech; Right Action; Right Livelihood; Right Effort; Right Mindfulness; and Right Concentration. There is no specific sequence in this set of insights because they are interrelated.
