Freedom from pain and suffering ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Look within and ask who is looking? Within is stillness and tranquillity. Do not associate things with mine, or me, do not say my fear, my anger, my body, my work, my thoughts, my feelings. None of those things belong to you. Try to be aware of your true nature. The real you is free from pain and suffering all the time. It is this body which feels pain and suffering, not you. You are the pure awareness which is, at all times empty. It if weren't empty, you won't be able to perceive objects. There is a perceiver and there is the object. Look at the perceiver. It is the real you ... free and empty. When you feel pain, it is just "the pain". It is not my pain, it is this body's pain. When I am angry, it is just "an anger". It is not "my anger". It is attachment to things that causes suffering. We experience pain and suffering because we constantly identify with the world as "my pain", "my body", "my anger", my this, my that...
