But that's exactly what the second Noble Truth is.  The Four Noble
Truths are the whole foundation of what the Buddha said--the subject
of his first sermon, and the basis of Buddhism.  If you missed them, 
you should not be bringing in the Buddha because you have not read 
what he has to say, or have totally missed his point.
