"Ben sadece acıyı ve onu nasıl yok edeceğinizi öğretiyorum. Kalbinizde acı olduğu için kalbime girdiniz.” böyle demişti Buddha. Bodhi agacının altında 49 gün suren meditasyonun ardından ilk ögretisi 4 Yüce Gercek oldu. 1. Acı vardır. Acıyı gorün kabul edin. Bir bebek gibi acınızı kucagınıza alin, ona bakin. 2. Ona bakar, ilgi gösterirseniz ardinda sebepleri oldugunu göreceksiniz. Bazen cehalet/ körlük bazen arzu/hırs bazen korku/öfke. 3. O zaman acının dönüsüm ihtimali ortaya cikabilir. Acıdan cikmak mumkun, zorluklari kolaylastirmak mumkun, sorunlari cözmek mumkun. 4. Dogru dikkat/farkindalikla, dogru görüsle, dogru dusunce, dogru söz, dogru eylem, dogru caba, dogru gecim yollari secerek, dogru odaklanma ile acı sebeplerini ortadan kaldirabilirsiniz. Sevgi ve Sefkati gelistirebilirsiniz.
