as riches, power and long life.3. The only cure for suffering is to overcome

The only cure for suffering is to follow the Eightfold Path, a middle way between a life devoted to pleasure and a life of harsh self-denial.
It is important to live a moral life.
Enlightenment is achieved through meditation.
The ultimate goal is nirvana, union
with the universe and release from the cycle of rebirth (Reincarnation).
