>>40735434 (OP)The idea that desire causes suffering is most famously associated with Buddhism, particularly in the teachings of Siddhartha Gautama, known as the Buddha. In Buddhist philosophy, this concept is encapsulated in the Four Noble Truths, which state that suffering (dukkha) is a fundamental part of existence, and that attachment and desire (tanha) are primary sources of this suffering. The Buddha taught that by overcoming desire and attachment, one can achieve enlightenment and liberation from suffering.
