Unit 6 Lesson 9
1. Life is suffering.
All life is a great wheel of suffering.
Suffering can be mental or physical.
2. Suffering is caused by our
desires and greed.
The cause of suffering is selfishness and
greed. People want more and more and
they are never satisfied.
3. There can be an end to
suffering and desires.
End unhappiness by ending greed and
selfishness. With no desire for worldly
things, you end the cycle or rebirth and the
suffering that comes from it.
4. There is a path to Nirvana.
The way to the end of suffering is the
Eightfold Noble Path and following the
Middle Way.
It is the path of living between two extremes.
This means that people
should not desire great
pleasures, such as strong
drink, rich foods, or
great luxury.
At the same time, they
should not impose great
hardships on themselves,
such as fasting or other
forms of self denial
This, Buddha said, is the path to
Nirvana.
Unit 6 Lesson 9
After Buddha’s death, his teachings were spread through
writings.
Two different views emerged.
1. The Buddha was a good man, and taught others
how to live a life free of suffering.
2. The Buddha was a god ,who came to earth to
teach people about pain and suffering. You should
pray to him for help. Many people use statues of the
Buddha to focus their prayer and meditation.
