Summary

This quote emphasizes the core principle of the Dharma, which is to recognize and understand the root cause of our suffering. According to Buddhist teachings, suffering arises from attachment, desire, and ignorance. By closely examining our thoughts, emotions, and actions, we can gain insight into the underlying causes of our inner turmoil and suffering. This awareness then enables us to transcend these causes and find peace and liberation. Ultimately, the essence of the Dharma lies in the pursuit of self-reflection and self-transformation to alleviate suffering and attain enlightenment.
