Understanding Suffering
Book of Life
Can I understand suffering?
That should be my problem
Not how to be happy
I am happy when I am not suffering
But the moment I am conscious of it
It is not happiness
So I must understand
What is suffering?
Can I understand what is suffering when a part of my mind
Is running away seeking happiness
Seeking a way out of this misery?
So must I not ,if am to understand this suffering
Be completely one with it , not reject it not justify it
Nit condemn it not compare it
But completely be with it
And understand it?
My notes;
This is classic JK ; There is no antidote;
Alternate to a fact
No duality
Anti-that
Rather to deal with the issue straightforward
Face the fact!
Fact is I am suffering , miserable
But I then shall need to face it rather than run away!
