Suffering

There is the personal sorrow and the sorrow of the world.There is the sorrow of ignorance and the sorrow of time is the deception that can cure,heal and change.Most people are caught in that deception and either worship sorrow or explain it away.But in either case it either worship sorrow or explain it away. But in either case it continue and one never asks oneself if it can come to an end.

Self-pity is one of the elements of sorrow. Another element is being attached to someone and encouraging or fostering his attachment to you. Sorrow is not only there when attachment fails you but its seed is in the very beginning of that attachment. In all this the trouble is the utter lack of knowing oneself. Knowing oneself is the ending of sorrow. We are afraid to know ourself because we have divided ourselves into the good and the bad,the evil and the noble,the pure and the impure. The good is always judging the bad and these fragments are at war with each other.
