According to Buddhist tradition, the important concepts regarding the human condition of suffering and how to overcome it are best described by **The Four Noble Truths**.
The Four Noble Truths outline the nature of suffering (Dukkha), the cause of suffering (Samudaya), the possibility of overcoming suffering (Nirodha), and the path leading to the cessation of suffering (Magga), which is the Eightfold Path.
While the ascetic lifestyle, the Sangha, and the Buddha are all significant within Buddhism, the Four Noble Truths specifically encapsulate the core teachings related to suffering and its alleviation.
