No longer striving to quell the restlessness with temporary enjoyments, people can awaken to 'the city of nirvana, the place of highest happiness, peaceful, lovely, without su ering, without fear, without sickness, free from old age and death.'1 The fourth noble truth is the Eight-Fold Path, a set of practices that leads the individual to this liberating knowledge. Nirvana means 'blowing out,' implying extinction of the thirst and the end of su ering. The third noble truth is that there is a cure for this thirst and the su ering it brings: nirvana. People are always thirsting for something more, making for a life of restlessness with no end in sight. The second noble truth states that the origin of su ering is an unquenchable thirst. Based on his own experiences, the Buddha concluded that life is characterized by su ering not only in an obvious physical and mental sense, but also because everything that promises pleasure and happiness is ultimately unsatisfactory and impermanent. The principal teaching of the Buddha, presented at his rst sermon, is called the Four Noble Truths. The concepts that appear throughout these records of the outcome of their search are brahman (not to be confused with Brahmins), atman, transmigration, and karma. Rather, they sought deeper insight into the nature of reality, the origins of the universe, and the human condition. These sages were likely hermits and wanderers who felt spiritually dissatis ed with the mythological and ritualistic approach of Brahmanism. The Upanishads are records of what was taught and discussed, the earliest dating to the eighth and seventh centuries BCE. The title means 'sitting near' and points to a setting where sages conveyed spiritual insights to students through dialogue, stories, and analogies. That is how a person is liberated from the illusion of endless wandering.The Upanishads, however, added an entirely new set of ideas. Through quieting the mind and inquiry, the individual can discover atman and its identity with brahman: the soul is the divine reality. They also discovered that deep within the heart of each person lies the eternal soul. They called this ultimate reality brahman.
