Hi Colleen carino questo sulle 4 nobile verità . Nic .
----Messaggio originale---- Da: [email protected] Data: 28-set-2014 2.02 A: <[email protected]> Ogg: [TROM1] Notes on Dukkha Dukkha is a Buddhist term and the most common quote is "Dukkha is suffering". Here is a quote from Max Sandor's "Little Purple Notebook..." -- his educated insight into Dukkha: "In this notebook, dukkha will be left mostly untranslated. A close English description in a modern context would be the concept of 'case', a wording that is not too widespread, however. Throughout this book one could safely use the word 'dukkha' whenever the word 'case' has been used.The word 'in-sanity' would also be an acceptable choice in many cases because it maintains the original structure of the compound word dukkha which literally means 'not wholesome'.How did the translation 'suffering' enter the scene? 'Suffering' is a consequence of dukkha in very much the same way that 'case' or 'in-sanity' is the cause of the problems that a person has in life.1) A person has to realize that it has 'case' before it can do something about it. This is a modern phrasing of the 'first noble truth: the truth of dukkha'. 2) In order to do something about 'case', it has to be understood how it came about in the first place and how it continues to be created. This is obviously the 'second noble truth' of Gotamo. 3) The third one is the truth about resolving 'case', or 'the truth of resolving dukkha'. This is the basic possibility of what is nowadays called 'clearing' or 'processing'. 4) The forth truth, the 'path to resolving case (dukkha)', would be called 'applied technology' in modern words."
