Definition: (1) Dukkha "suffering, pain, frustration, chronic disease"; (2) Trishna - the cause of suffering (desire, craving); (3) Nirvana - a state of liberation from suffering; (4) Marga "path' - The Eightfold Path to remove suffering.
Insight: Dukkha (suffering) is the opposite of sukha - happiness, bliss, pleasure.
Insight: The Eightfold Path has three divisions - drishti (understanding), sila (conduct), and smriti (meditation).
Insight: Each step on the Eightfold Path is usually preceded by the word "right" in its translation, but should really be interpreted as "middle-wayed" for balance.
