Buddha Shakyamuni

1. Dukkha, “The truth of the existential suffering”.
Inherent in human life and suffering existential: it afflicts man because impermanence of life situation that comes with it from birth and because of its birth deep in “samsara.”
This existential suffering is revealed and is perceived not only when one sees the inevitability of sickness, old age and death, but even when one is forced into contact with what one does not like such as, contacts, connections, relationships, interactions with persons, things or events that we dislike.
But not only in these cases: the existential suffering is revealed and is perceived even when you are forced to separate from what you love, like when one is deprived of visions, sounds, smells, tastes and tactile sensations desirable, pleasing, attractive, or as when one is unable to obtain contacts, connections, relationships, interactions with people, things or events are responsible for his own good, its well-being, his ease, his freedom from slavery, or finally, where one should be subjected to the forced separation mother, father, brothers, sisters or friends, classmates, family, loved.
The frustration of desires is one of the most common perceptions of “dukkha”, the so-called “existential suffering”.
More generally, the finding that it is done in the “First Noble Truth is that there is in human life suffering associated with existential impermanence of all things, the fact that everything is destined to end.

2. Samudaya: “There is a source of the existential suffering”
Existential suffering is not the fault of the world, nor of fate or a deity, neither happens by chance.
Originates within us from the pursuit of happiness in that which is transitory, driven by desire (trsna, in Pali: ‘ta’ has’ or ‘brama’) for what is not satisfactory.
It occurs in three forms of kamatrsna or ‘desire for sensual objects; bhavatrsna or’ desire to be ‘vibhavatrsna or’ desire not to be.

3. Nirodha: “There is the emancipation from existential suffering”
To experience the emancipation from suffering existential need to let go trsna, attachment to things and people, the scale of values deceptive so what is temporary and more desirable.

4. Magga (Pali) or Marga (Sanskrit): “there is a path of practice for emancipation from existential suffering”.
It is the spiritual path to be taken to move closer to Nibbana.
It is called the “Noble Eightfold Path”.
