Synopsis

To solve the problems in life, the Buddha formulated and introduced to the world the “spiritual path” by means of which the cessation of suffering can be attained. The key to overcoming suffering lies foremost in the abandoning of all “cognitive views” through the attainment of direct “insight” into the Four Noble Truths. The talk will highlight the “gradual” process of different stages of the Spiritual Path and their abandonment of categories of defilement, and finally attainment of Arahathood.
