A Nobel Truth is one that ennobles the person who truly understands it. ... - Dhamma by Ajahn Jayasāro
A Nobel Truth is one that ennobles the person who truly understands it. 'There is suffering' is a Nobel Truth. 'I am suffering' is not. Enlightenment occurs only after we have seen suffering as a conditioned phenomena. Only depression, self-aversion and self-pity result from taking it personally. The understanding that 'there is suffering' arises from observation of experience. Whenever we don't pay attention to the reality of our body and mind, we create the sense of 'I'. In Dhamma practice we learn how to stop taking this 'I' so seriously, and ultimately how to let it go.
