Regarding Buddha's Four Noble Truths, which of the following statements does NOT apply correctly?
ADukkha, dissatisfaction with existence in the phenomenal world
BThe origination of dukkha in craving or desire
CThe cessation of dukkha
DThe way to that cessation by following the Fourfold Path ✓ Correct
Correct answer: (D) The way to that cessation by following the Fourfold Path — The last statement does not apply correctly, so that is the answer.
Explanation
★The last statement does not apply correctly, so that is the answer.
★The first three truths, dukkha, its origin and its cessation, are stated rightly.
★The fourth truth is the path to cessation, but that path is the Eightfold Path.
★Calling it the 'Fourfold Path' is a mistake, so this statement does not apply.
★So the wrongly worded statement is about the path.
★So the answer is the fourth statement.
