" Buddha taught that it is not inevitable that we experience such painful syndromes as this. It is possible for these syndromes and their causes to cease, not just temporarily, but forever. Their true stopping or ending, equivalent to their total removal, is the third true fact in life — the true “cessation” of suffering and its causes. "

― Dalai Lama XIV , The Gelug/Kagyu Tradition of Mahamudra
