Three Marks of Existence Anatta:“no-self” Anicca:“impermanence” Dukkha:“suffering”

3 Marks of Existence: Anatta Anatta:the “no-self” No ultimate reality within No essence underlying existence No eternal substratum that is truly real The essence of Buddhism… there is NO essence.

3 Marks of Existence: Anicca Anicca:“impermanence” Very closely related to anatta Reality is not static, but dynamic Reality/Life does not change, but IS change, flux, flow Image of river (“You cannot step into the same river twice” –Heraclitus)

3 Marks of Existence: Dukkha Dukkha: “suffering”, dissatisfaction, frustration, dislocation, longing, wanting… Natural result/ logical consequence of clinging to the impermanent as if it were permanent…

The Dharma Buddhist Teachings

Samsara Literally, the “cycle of rebirth”, or reincarnation Originally a Hindu doctrine –Soul or “self” (atman) reborn –This liberation called moksha Problem in Buddhist teaching? “No-self” (anatta, an-atman)! Who/what is reincarnated?

Karma Moral law of cause and effect Karma is energy caused by action which produces an effect Analogies: flame, pebble in pond Possible problems with teaching? How we influence karma: morality…

The Four Noble Truths 1.To live is to suffer(dukkha). 2.Suffering is caused by desire(tanha). –Karma/cause and effect logic –Tanha= craving, greed, lust, hunger, thirst, selfishness –Like dukkha, tanha is unavoidable… the “self” simply will crave for itself

The Four Noble Truths 1.To live is to suffer(dukkha). 2.Suffering is caused by desire(tanha). 3.Suffering can be brought to cessation. –Suffering ends when desire ends. –Desire ends with the end of the one who desires… the self –I AMI WANT I SUFFER
