The Four Noble Truths | Samudaya: The Cause of Suffering

Buddhism Explained: The Four Noble Truths | Samudaya: The Cause of Suffering
#buddhismexplained #fournobletruths #dukkha #noble #suffering #buddhisminenglish
What is the Cause of Suffering? How Did Buddha Realize This?
The Second Noble Truth, teaches that Dukkha (suffering, pain, unsatisfactoriness) has its causes and origins. It meticulously and comprehensively examines and acknowledges suffering more than ever before. It posits that suffering arises from dependent origination; in other words, suffering comes into being due to various conditions. Suffering is not an absolute truth. It is a noble truth; and we need to pay attention to this distinction. We do not say that in this world, everything is suffering, but we do say that there is suffering associated with the world we live in and with the limitations of this life. Viewing suffering from this perspective allows us to see our limitations and what we are attached to and bound by in our lives.
The body is one of the things we are attached to. According to natural law, the human body is born, grows, ages, and dies. It is not ours alone, yet we always treat it as if it were. For example, if you say you do not like my appearance, I immediately think, "This person does not like my face. This face is me. So, he does not like me. I am very dissatisfied with him about this." If I identify this body as myself, then when someone insults it, I will be upset. But if I realize that this body is not mine, then whatever anyone says about my face does not bother me. My face is what it is at that moment, it looks like that, it is not something of my own. It belongs to the natural world, and according to natural law, it will age and die. When we reduce our identification with this body, we will have less trouble with it. The body comes into being due to various conditions. Just let it be, that's all...

    1. Pleasurable Object (Joy) ➡ Greed ➡ Attachment ➡ Suffering Of Change. 2. Unpleasant Object (Suffering) ➡ Hatred ➡ Attachment ➡ Suffering Upon Suffering. 3. Neutral Object (Neither Suffering Nor Joy) ➡ Delusion ➡ Attachment ➡ Conditional Suffering The Search For A Pleasurable Object To Replace The Neutral One (Delusion) Can Lead To Encountering A Pleasurable Object, Resulting In Suffering Of Change; Encountering An Unpleasant Object, Resulting In Suffering Upon Suffering; Encountering Another Neutral Object, Again Resulting In Conditional Suffering As Described.

    Perfect. For the last five days I have been meditating near the spot where Buddha's foster mother attained Parinirvana. What better place. Imagine it. All the greats sat around where I sat looking on and helping Prajapati Gautami attaining Parinirvana. The spot is lovely and serene on the banks of the Ganges. Wow. The Buddha watched on, Sariputra and Mogallana watched on, Kassapa, Bhaddaji and the other disciples watched on, Visakha and Amrapali watched on, Theri Uppalavana watched on and helped Prajapati Gautami to have her last bath. The five hundred nuns were sitting around meditating. It took time. I was on that spot imagining that scene through my monkey mind as I tried to meditate. Namo Buddhay. Namaste. Show less

    The Samudaya still exits within us until we reach to the state of Arahant who has only 1 life before reaching to Nirvana. I admire that the video creators' team has so much deep understanding of Buddha's teachings. Thank you so much for spreading Buddha's wisdom and Teachings🙏🙏🙏. However, ones must put it into Practice, meaning to stay being mindful and meditating. In another words, we must watch our mind all the time not to clinch to the Samudaya which is the root cause of all human beings' sufferings. In order to cut out all these Samudaya, the most effective way is to become a true monk practicing solitude and try to attain enlightenment in this life. But again, as we, human beings are so obsessed with our current life, not everyone wants to become a monk (including me), at the same time we want to Escape from Sufferings we have now or will have in the future.

    Thank you for your thoughtful reflection and kind words about the video. It’s clear that you have a profound understanding of the Second Noble Truth-Samudaya, the origin of suffering, and the path to its cessation. Your emphasis on practice, particularly mindfulness and meditation, is crucial and resonates deeply with the essence of Buddhist teachings. Indeed, being vigilant about our mind’s tendencies to cling to desires and aversions is key to mitigating suffering. Your point about the monastic life as a direct path to enlightenment highlights an important aspect of Buddhist practice. While not everyone is called to be a monk, as you’ve noted, each individual can still incorporate aspects of these teachings into their daily lives to alleviate suffering and grow spiritually. It’s wonderful to hear your commitment to both understanding and applying these teachings. If you have any experiences or additional insights from your practice that you’d like to share, or if you’re seeking further discussion on how to balance these teachings with lay life, I’d love to continue this conversation. Let’s keep supporting each other on this path to deeper understanding and eventual liberation.

    There are many outstanding sutras like: Avatamsaka Sutra Visualisation Sutra. Surangama Sutra Diamond Sutra Heart Sutra etc. These Sutras were highly regarded by many Grand Masters in China. But when they compared these Sutras with the Infinite Life Sutra, they all come to one conclusion that Infinite Life Sutra is the king of all Sutras. Some sutras are easy to understand but difficult to practice. Others are difficult to understand and difficult to practice. This is not true convenient. Infinite Life Sutra is easy to understand and easy to practice. Infinite Life Sutra is very convenient. Convinient means easy to understand and easy to practice. Infinite Life Sutra teaches one to become a Buddha in this lifetime. No other sutras have such capability. Others can also help you to attain Buddhahood but not in one lifetime. Some takes infinite lifetimes and some may still take eons only to become a Bodhisattva. To learn and practice the Buddha's Teachings, one must succeed in one lifetime not in future lifetime. 🙏🙏🙏Amituofo

Human r suffering from feeling( mind) and body suffering from sick/ old/ decay... Conclusion : suffering got 2 meanings and link to each other.

    At 9:46 you explain vibhava-tanha as a desire to live forever after death. I would like to know where or from whom you got this teaching. I also came to understand the meaning in the same way. The pali prefix 'vi' is incorrectly translated as 'non'. Its correct translation is 'complete' or 'final', which results in this case as ' complete existence' or 'final existence '. Could you please let me know where or from whom you got this teaching? I would be very interested to talk to them as I feel this is one of the most important ideas to understand in order to really understand the Buddha's teachings.

    Attachment to non-corporeal existence, existing in a spiritual realm with complete bliss, joy of the Dharma, and absolute happiness. This is the ideal state of all religions and the goal of a long, arduous journey of practice. For Brahmanism, liberation is achieved when the individual soul, known as the Atman, merges with the Supreme Soul, or Brahman. For religions founded on the Old Testament, this state is when the soul exists in heavenly paradise or the Kingdom of God. In Gnostic beliefs, the soul is completely free and unbounded by the physical body. In Buddhism, many individuals and sects understand Nirvana without Remainder as absolute happiness, complete bliss, and perfect joy of the Dharma, a state called True Self, either as Eternal Bliss of Self or Eternal Bliss of Non-self, Nirvana is True Emptiness and Wonderful Existence… Therefore, when an Arhat enters Nirvana without Remainder, it is understood that their pure consciousness has merged into Nirvana. Such understandings of Nirvana encompass an existence without a physical body, aiming to enjoy the absolute happiness of Nirvana. However, Buddhism denies the existence of an eternal soul or consciousness, thus while recognizing a non-corporeal existence, what exactly exists in Nirvana is avoided by the concept of “inconceivable” or while being True Emptiness yet Wonderful Existence. Such ignorant understandings arise from the attachment to a non-corporeal existence, hence the entry into extinction of an Arhat is not accepted, like oil extinguishing a lamp, no longer going anywhere, not existing anywhere, in any form, like sleeping a dreamless sleep forever. Ignorant knowledge due to attachment to existence never accepts that AN ARHAT’S DEATH IS THE END, arguing instead that enduring such hard practice through countless eons only to end in death makes practice pointless. Only those who have attained the Wisdom of Enlightenment, the Four Noble Truths, having truly perceived that EXISTENCE IS SUFFERING, having eradicated DESIRE, FORM, and FORMLESS DESIRE, can calmly accept practicing to eventually achieve THE END IS DEATH, no more rebirth, no more existence with or without a physical body. While FORM DESIRE might dominate human life more strongly than FORMLESS DESIRE, the latter still exerts a stronger influence than FORM DESIRE. Extreme followers of Islam delight in the soul existing in heavenly paradise if martyred, thus are ready to embrace death without fear. Ancient and current Indian ascetics, due to their attachment to the Great Soul, or Brahman, manage to suppress DESIRE and FORM DESIRE, not aiming for worldly happiness or life. Non-Form Desire remains an attachment to existence so upon death, the consciousness arises, strongly aspiring to EXIST in that blissful spiritual world, hence giving rise to Rebirth Consciousness, a kind of Rebirth. This Rebirth may exist for a very long time and still suffer all the torments of a Rebirth, and when the karma is exhausted, it enters Womb or Egg Birth, reverting to this life with the suffering of Birth, Old Age, Sickness, and Death. The Sutra on Basic Dharma states clearly, the layperson does not understand Nirvana properly, thus desires the bliss of Nirvana, and this is the Basis of Suffering. Meaning the layperson misunderstands Nirvana as eternal blissful self-purity, Nirvana as absolute happiness, thus desires, seeks the absolute happiness of Nirvana called Desire for the Bliss of Nirvana. Ending NON-FORM DESIRE is ENDING SUFFERING. The path to ending Non-Form Desire, ending Suffering is the Noble Eightfold Path. The main component capable of ending Non-Form Desire is Right View. Right View or Wisdom is achieved through Learning, Thinking, and Practicing. When Wisdom at the third level, through Practice, is complete, RIGHT WISDOM arises, the one knows: Birth has ended, the holy life has been lived, what had to be done has been done, there is no more returning to this state. RIGHT WISDOM arises and it also ends NON-FORM DESIRE, and this is also the moment when the fruit of Arhatship is achieved.

    In the Sutra of the Turning of the Dharma Wheel, the Buddha taught that the cause of suffering is Craving: seeking happiness here and there such as Sensual Craving, Form Craving, and Formless Craving. To end suffering, one must eradicate these three types of craving, specifically Sensual Craving, Form Craving, and Formless Craving. And to eradicate these three cravings, one must truly understand or become enlightened about them. However, it must first be affirmed that craving is the craving for happiness. Therefore, ENDING SUFFERING is about ending the CRAVING FOR HAPPINESS, not ending HAPPINESS itself.

    . I do research on how Buddhism disappeared in Bihar. I realized it never disappeared from Bihar. Buddhists simply failed to research Indian Buddhism. They looked at Buddhism through the sphere of their own cultures searching for only the Buddha. Buddha had a myriad of names in different villages according to his teachings there. Example. His favorite teaching was 'Lust and desire causes pain. Remove lust and desire, and pain is removed'. Translated into Bihari (where the Buddha story took place) it is DHUKH HARAN meaning to remove dukha. Three dozen villages pray to DUKH HARAN Baba. Its clear that DUKH HARAN Baba is none other than the Buddha. Problem is Buddhists are searching only for the Buddha. In the real Vaishali the Buddha begged for alms. The locals there pray to 'BHIKHAINI' Baba (Beggar Baba). Bhikhaini was mispronounced by Buddhists as Bhikshu. Who is BHIKHAINI Baba. The Buddha no doubt. But people are searching for a man called Buddha. In the real Vaishali, in Beluha the Buddha suffered a sickness and felt he had grown old. The locals pray to 'BURHA' Baba (Old Baba). Who is BURHA Baba. The Buddha no doubt. In the real Vaishali the Lichavies pressurized Buddha not to die. They trailed him to Bandagawan pressurizing him not to die. To put pressure in Hindi is DABESHWAR. Three dozen villages around the stupa where Buddha gave the Lichavies his patra, the villagers pray to Baba 'DABESHWAR NATH' meaning the man who won the pressurizing game. It was the the Buddha no doubt as he gave the Lichavies his patra and succeded in sending them back. But Buddhists are searching for the Buddha. Forgive me for commenting out of the topic. I just wanted to impart this information to you.

    More of a philosophy. Siddhartha said no man above another. Meaning you don't worship a God or any man above any other. Although there are Buddhist scriptures, the buddha, advocated exploration and evidence for belief. In Stark contrast, religious institutions demand dogmatic faith based on their scripture without evidence.
