Four Dharma Seals
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Four Dharma Seals are the four characteristics which reflect true Buddhist teaching .[1][2] It is said that if a teaching contains the Four Dharma Seals then it can be considered Buddha Dharma.[3] although the Dharma Seals were all introduced after Gautama Buddha died.[4]
The Four Seals
The Four Seals are as follows:[1]
- All compounded things are impermanent
- All conditioned phenomena and experiences are unsatisfactory
- All phenomena are non-self
- Nirvana is true peace
As suffering is not an inherent aspect of existence[4] sometimes the second seal is omitted to make Three Dharma Seals.[5][6]
