I agree with Kaarine. While the innterpretation of D.O. as an ontology tends to be rather popular, it is and always has been a wrong turn from the Buddha's path.

D.O. Is an expansion of the 4NT, and as such it describes how the influence of ignorance causes mental suffering and misery to arise. It is rather simple, actually.
