The Four Noble Truths of Buddhism are the beliefs upon which the Buddhist religion is based. They are: 1. Suffering consists of disease, old age, and death; separation from loved ones; desiring what one cannot have; and hating what one cannot avoid. 2. All suffering comes from the attempt to satisfy personal desires. 3. Suffering can be eliminated by overcoming desire. 4. Desire can be overcome by following the Noble Eightfold Path (the rules one should follow to achieve nirvana or enlightenment). The Noble Eightfold Path consists of: 1. right understanding; 2. right thought; 3. right speech; 4. right action; 5. right means of livelihood; 6. right effort; 7. right mindfulness; and 8. right concentration.
