Introduction The four noble truths may be defined as the fundamental teachings of the Buddhism religion. The Four Noble Truths are simultaneously given as the first lessons to everyone being introduced to Buddhism. They describe the way of life of the followers and the factors that can cause suffering. The truths are not just philosophical interpretations, but also give cognitive methodologies to promote psychological insight of the believer (Tay 104). It can be viewed as a particular guideline that may be utilized to improve the understanding of their lives and everything that surrounds them (Fenner 7). They reassure that suffering can be eliminated in someone’s life as long as the person or the believer follows the teachings strictly and wisely. Notably, the teachings represent a permanent cure for misery. Followers of Buddhism believe that they have the power inside them to end the pain in their lives. It is necessary to analyze each step to improve an understanding of their purpose and unique aspects. The Truth of Suffering The first noble truth in Buddhism teachings is the truth of suffering that is frequently referred to as Dukkha. It is suggested that a person’s life is full of frustration, pain, and dissatisfaction. The teaching of this truth is expressed in three different ways. One of them is defined as “suffering of suffering” whereby the person is aware of the torment, such as physical discomfort, war, and diseases (Laumakis 97). The other dimension is pain and frustration brought by the impermanence of all possible things. The last interpretation of the Dukkha is the expression of suffering that is inevitable. Moreover, it focuses on such issues as agony that one must experience as a human being. It is suggested that one may have to look at various aspects of suffering to be aware of possible implications. The issue is that many people reject them, and they believe that they are quite outdated (Sumedho 11). Some state that a particular inconsistency is present because several interpretations of the teachings are possible. One may think that it is suggested that an individual is capable of controlling his or her happiness if moral principles are respected (Gowans 124). However, it is possible to argue with this objection, and it was most likely meant that relief is only temporary. The first noble truth is criticized because it encourages hopelessness. It is possible to argue that Buddhism, as a religion, is pessimistic since it majors in suffering. On the other hand, one of the core aspects that should be highlighted is that it helps to identify issues that are present in the life of an individual, and this position allows having a better understanding of what course of action is required to resolve them. The Noble Truth of Source of Illness The truth suggests that the lack of knowledge can be one of the primary causes of illness. Craving can be regarded as one of the sources according to the noble truths (Carus 102). Human beings often find themselves in trouble due to a desire to get access to things, which are not in their capacities, such as material wealth and mental satisfaction. Therefore, the truth holds that human beings are in constant motion to rearrange themselves in a pleasant manner (Netland 109). T
