The Four Noble Truths - The Dalai Lama.pdf

In July 1996, for the first time in the West, his Holiness the Dalai Lama gave two exclusive days of teaching in London on The Four Noble Truths — the heart of the Buddhist's teachings.

The Four Noble Truths — the truth of suffering, the truth of the origin of suffering, the truth of the cessation of suffering and the truth of the path leading to this cessation — was the first sermon the Buddha gave after he was enlightened. As well as elucidating these teachings, His Holiness the Dalai Lama also explains the relative and absolute compassion.
