Buddhist doctrine

Path to nirvana

Buddhist doctrine encompasses the teachings attributed to the Buddha, centered on the Four Noble Truths: that life involves suffering, suffering arises from craving, suffering can end, and the path to ending it is the Eightfold Path.

Core concepts include karma, rebirth, impermanence, and the goal of nirvana—liberation from the cycle of rebirth.

The retreat focused on Buddhist doctrine and meditation practice.
