"This is not mine, not me, not myself."
       --  MN 62: Advice to Rahula

The Buddhist Four Noble Truths:
1. Suffering pervades all experience.
2. The origen of suffering is desire.
3. The cessation of suffering follows on the fading of desire.
4.  Self restraint, concentration and wisdom liberate from suffering.
