Luang Poo Doon's reframing of the 4 Noble Truths:
"The mind that goes out in order to satisfy its moods is the Cause of Suffering (samudaya).
The result that comes from the mind going out in order to satisfy its moods is Suffering (dukkha).
The mind seeing the mind clearly is the Path leading to Cessation of Suffering (magga).
The result of the mind seeing the mind clearly is the Cessation of Suffering (nirodha).
