Detailed explanation-1: -Don’t immediately chase after what you want; instead, recognize what’s happening to you and take a step back to observe your experience. Since desire manifests as physical sensations, we can recognize and name those sensations to take away some of their power.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cessation of suffering (Nirodha) The Buddha taught that the way to extinguish desire, which causes suffering, is to liberate oneself from attachment. This is the third Noble Truth-the possibility of liberation. The Buddha was a living example that this is possible in a human lifetime.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Buddha believed that most suffering is caused by a tendency to crave or desire things. A person might crave something nice to eat or desire to go on a nice holiday or earn lots of money. Buddhism teaches that through being dissatisfied with their lives and craving things, people suffer.
Detailed explanation-4: -It was while he was meditating beneath a Bodhi tree that Siddhartha understood the Four Noble Truths in a flash of illumination.
