The Four Noble Truths are the foundation of the Buddha’s teaching. They are four objective, fundamental aspects of reality he realized when he awoke. The Buddha said that to not know these truths is to sleepwalk through life, always repeating the same mistakes, not knowing they bring you suffering.

And it is no coincidence these four truths are called ‘noble’. To hear them is already the first step on a path that one day (even if lifetimes into the future) WILL bring you to becoming an awakened one - a Buddha - yourself.
