“Bhikkhū, there are these four noble truths.

“Cattārimāni, bhikkhave, ariyasaccāni.

What four?

Katamāni cattāri?

The noble truths of suffering, the origin of suffering, the cessation of suffering, and the practice that leads to the cessation of suffering.

Dukkhaṁ ariyasaccaṁ, dukkhasamudayaṁ ariyasaccaṁ, dukkhanirodhaṁ ariyasaccaṁ, dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā ariyasaccaṁ—

These four noble truths are real, not unreal, not otherwise.

imāni kho, bhikkhave, cattāri ariyasaccāni tathāni avitathāni anaññathāni;

That’s why they’re called ‘noble truths’.

tasmā ‘ariyasaccānī’ti vuccanti.

That’s why you should practice meditation …”

Tasmātiha, bhikkhave, ‘idaṁ dukkhan’ti yogo karaṇīyo …pe… ‘ayaṁ dukkhanirodhagāminī paṭipadā’ti yogo karaṇīyo”ti.
