Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
The cause of suffering is that the unbounded Self is overshadowed by the world.
Suffering makes a people greater, and we have suffered much. We had a message to give the world, but we were overwhelmed, and the message was cut off in the middle. In time there will be millions of us - becoming stronger and stronger - and we will complete the message.
Everyone faces the challenge of finding meaning to their suffering.
The reward of suffering is experience.
Suffering is permanent, obscure and dark, And shares the nature of infinity.
Not suffering another existence is reaching the Way.
There is some suffering that awaits us all.
I do not believe that sheer suffering teaches. If suffering alone taught, all the world would be wise, since everyone suffers. To suffering must be added mourning, understanding, patience, love, openness and the willingness to remain vulnerable.
Suffering is the positive element in this world, indeed it is the only link between this world and the positive.
