I did not notice, the Fourth truth in there, maybe I missed it but I re read it a few times and did not notice it so I can not comment.
Hi again Justen,

Very briefly, the First Noble Truth recognises that we experience distress/dissatisfaction/mental suffering (dukkha) mostly through attachment to what we consider is "I" and "mine".

The Second Noble Truth recognises that we suffer because of ignorance and craving/clinging/ attachment (upadana)

The Third Noble Truth is recognising that release/letting go of craving and attachment is possible.

.....and then the Fourth Noble Truth is the way of doing that through The Noble Eightfold Path.


For further clarification and study, check the resource already mentioned in # 4


with kind wishes
