Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the core teachings of early Buddhist philosophy, exploring the Four Noble Truths ΓΆβ β a foundational framework for understanding and overcoming suffering. Originating in ancient India around the 6th century BC, these truths provide a systematic approach to achieving liberation from the cycle of birth, death, and rebirth. The author meticulously examines each truth, utilising the Buddha's own words as recorded in the Sutta-Pitaka, a collection of discourses within the Pali Canon ΓΆβ β the earliest known Buddhist scriptures. The exploration delves into the nature of suffering, its causes, the possibility of its cessation, and the path to achieve this liberation. This path, known as the Eightfold Path, encompasses ethical conduct, mental discipline, and wisdom, offering a practical guide for navigating life's challenges and attaining lasting peace. Through detailed analysis and insightful commentary, the book unravels complex concepts such as the Five Aggregates of Existence, the nature of consciousness, and the impermanence of all phenomena. It illuminates the profound interconnection between our thoughts, actions, and experiences, revealing how clinging to desire and self-illusion perpetuates suffering. Ultimately, the book's insights offer a transformative perspective on the human condition, guiding readers towards a life of greater awareness, compassion, and liberation from suffering.
