The Four Noble Truths: that suffering is an inherent part of existence; that the origin of
suffering is ignorance and the main symptoms of that ignorance are attachment and
craving; that attachment and craving can be ceased; and that following the Noble
Eightfold Path will lead to the cessation of attachment and craving and therefore
suffering.
The Noble Eightfold Path: right understanding, right thought, right speech, right action,
right livelihood, right effort, right mindfulness, and right concentration.
Dependent origination: that any phenomenon 'exists' only because of the existence of
other phenomena in a complex web of cause and effect covering time past, present and
future. Because all things are thus conditioned and transient (anicca), they have no real
independent identity (anatta).
Rejection of the infallibility of accepted scripture: Teachings should not be accepted
unless they are borne out by our experience and are praised by the wise. See the Kalama
Sutta for details.
Anicca (Sanskrit: anitya): That all things are impermanent.
Anatta (Sanskrit: antman): That the perception of a constant "self" is an illusion.
Dukkha (Sanskrit: dukha): That all beings suffer from all situations due to unclear mind.
