Gautam Buddha was a good doctor!

The Buddha is like a good doctor. First a good doctor diagnoses the illness. Next he finds out what has caused it. Then he decides what the cure is. Finally he prescribes the medicine or gives the treatment that will make the patient well again. The world wide famous 4 noble truths proposed by Gautam Buddha prove why he is like a good doctor!

1) Suffering: suffering is common to all.
Birth- When we are born, we cry.
Sickness- When we are sick, we are miserable.
Old age- When old, we will have ache and pains and find it hard to get around.
Death- None of us wants to die. We feel deep sorrow when someone dies.
Other things we suffer from are:
Being with those we dislike,
being apart from those we love,
not getting what we want,
all kinds of problems and disappointments that are unavoidable.

The Buddha did not deny that there is happiness in life, but he pointed out it does not last forever. Eventually everyone meets with some kind of suffering. He said:
"There is happiness in life,
happiness in friendship,
happiness of a family,
happiness in a healthy body and mind,
...but when one loses them, there is suffering."

2) Cause of suffering: our ignorance to our karma and greed for the wrong kind of pleasures are the causes of our suffering. They do things that are harmful to their bodies and peace of mind, so they can not be satisfied or enjoy life. They should enjoy life and cherish their possessions without becoming greedy.

3) The end of sufferingstop doing that causes suffering. That means cutting off the greed and ignorance. In other words changing one's views and living in a more natural and peaceful way. This state in which we r free of all suffering is called NIRVANA in pure Buddhism.

4).The path to the end of suffering: The path to end suffering is known as the Noble Eightfold Path. It is also known as the Middle Way. This includes right view, right thought, right speech, right conduct, right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness and right concentration!

I personally pray Lord Buddha, for the happiness of all the friends! And hope we have our Country back as a peaceful nation, as it was before!
