It is true that the Pali word dukkha in ordinary usage means ‘suffering’, ‘pain’, ‘sorrow’ or ‘misery’, as opposed to the word sukha meaning ‘happiness’, ‘comfort’ or ‘ease’. But the term dukkha as the First Noble Truth, which represents the Buddha’s view of life and the world, has a deeper philosophical meaning (...) such as ‘imperfection’, ‘impermanence’, ‘emptiness’, ‘insubstantiality’.
