Suffering and its reason

 

Pain and pleasure are the states which happen with human in many ways and at many circumstances. We understood a little about the pain, also about the pleasure. Beside having the flow of some fluids in our body they also depend upon the recognition of human and hence the results of our own circumstances as well as inspirations. Pain is mainly of two type as we know. One is our physical pain, which is the result of some damage or cut to our body. Another is the mental pain which is the actual suffering and Buddha in his whole philosophy describes about this pain and call it the suffering. So before proceeding further let's reflect the four noble truths of Buddha 

1st, Yes this world is the home of suffering, because the possibility to have damage to our body depends upon its size and similarly damage to our mental peace depends upon the size of our ego. The size of ego is the main reason that people lose their lives by suicide as they feel it so heavy that they could not hold it any more and without any identity human can not even survive and this very identity is the ego itself. 

2nd, If there is suffering than there must be some reason or cause to this suffering.

3rd if there is suffering than there must be end of this suffering.

4th, if there is the end then there must be some way or path that lead to the end of this suffering.

So if we are clear, what is suffering, than only we will be able to reach at the cessation of it.

kama, Krodh, Lobha, Moha, Irshya, Ahamkaar are the main things which are the poisons as per the scriptures and according to them if they will be removed from a human. This human will be the actual embodiment of that divine. How much is it true and how much is it false? This question should always be answered by our intuition. The whole life when we tend it towards the meditation it becomes divine in its own. So before going further let's understand each of these terms one by one.

First what should be the divine experience; divine means overflow, in my understanding. The overflow of love, wisdom, care and every type of positive feeling that a human can experience while being human. The person who only shares the wisdom, love, care and solutions,

Once a person came to Buddha and at that instant he just spat on his face. Buddha cleaned his face and in peace opened his eyes. At that instant Ananda became very angry and sought the permission of Buddha to hit that stupid but Buddha didn't permitted and he understood the words which were expressed through his action despite from mouth. It was the clear indication that He doesn't love Buddha rather he hate him. The reason may be difference of ideology but when Buddha asked him about his situation than he felt satisfied from each of his single word. Than that hate transformed into the love and respect. Similar is the case with us, we all experience many types of happenings but all of those don't express the same experiences, rather diversity of happenings define their own experiences, but the type may be the same. So a Buddha never use anyone else but if it is the requirement of him too, than it may be exchanged. So this divine experience will be there only when we will be able to have the complete access of this body and the mind. 

I know we did not completely understood about  the divine experience but just a little foundation was been settled there, actually it's good first to set the foundation so that the building can stand over it. 

Let's understand about the so called poison which are natural actually but we don't even want the natural poisons:

 Kama: We understood this from the story of Mahadeva where the very divine identity was meditating and suddenly Kama attacked on his heart with an arrow then Shiva opened his eye and burnt that Kama in that instant. This story can be seen from many aspects, the best aspect to look this is Kama was the natural force which was trying to enable Shiva for sexual activity or the nature was trying to reproduce as per its rule. But Shiva opened his third eye and burnt Kama means he understood the very beginning of that feeling where is it getting it's birth from. Kama was the strong feeling and good thing is it doesn't come on its own. It wants some trigger to activate the very process and when it is very srong than even a single and most little trigger can activate this. The possibility goes down in the state of meditation as at that time we are aware what is going to happen and what this thought will be resulted in. That's why some Buddhist always laughed so much because they had made it as a reminder to be in touch with the meditation. Kama is mainly defined as the sexual attraction of our physique towards these types of activities.
