A Life of Suffering

Many people would not share the view that life is an ordeal that is meant to happen. Or rather, they have adapted to this pattern of life, and enjoy it through trials and tribulations. Most people believe that the state of life is not only relatively formed, but also with a great chance, and that the reason we have such a life is the product of randomness and chance. Not only do we completely ignore the inevitability of life's suffering, but we also do not know why all the catastrophic crises lurking in life exist. Why do they happen? What is the purpose of all the changes, misfortunes, and blows that we incur? Where do the adversities of life come from? We are confused by the relativity of life, but we live our lives in comparison with each other.

We attribute all the hardships and misfortunes of life to the accidental behavior of man, to a kind of human negligence and mistakes, to luck and misfortune, to the inevitable objective laws. The long-term facts of life and the state of life mamakeshe the situation of suffering the norm, and man is abused by life without being aware of it. The only reality of life has tamed everyone into a willing victim of abuse, and we are still not sure where the abuse of life comes from. InAmidardships, sorrow, anxiety, disappointment, and resentment, we are at a loss and can only submit or fight, but who knows what we are fighting against and what we are fighting for? The life of a person is a life of struggle against fate, who's happiness and joy is not the struggle to get? However, whose sorrows and pains are not the consequences of competition? What is the human world? Isn't it the scene of bittersweet, love-hate, grudge, death, and life? Why is life like this? It seems that life is supposed to be like this.

Obviously, everyone is aspiring and pursuing happiness, but it always seems to be out of reach, while calamity and suffering follow you, and if you are not careful, suffering will immediately trample you, so that you have nowhere to hide and can not prevent. The difficulties of life do not need to be exaggerated, almost everyone has a good and tears account inside, who is not an artful, speechless? But the most important question that should be asked is ignored, what is the reason for such a life? Who has created this embarrassing life? Because there is no way to find out, we never do. The realistic reasons we have been seeking to solve, but the ultimate cause we never asked, always ignorant, at most to human selfishness, greed, social injustice, moral degradation ...... and so on the reality of the phenomenon. For thousands of years, the social life of this pot of mud and sand mixed, when refreshing? .ho is not a victim? Who is not full of resentment, a handful of bitter tears?

In a few yeyearspeople may ask: If this is the case, why not find the cause and solve it with the concerted efforts of all mankind? Can we answer this question years from now? We cannot answer it, not only because we do not know the reason, but because we dare not pursue the real reason behind the real reason, the ultimate reason we cannot accept: the cause of our miserable life is ourselves, can there be any other reason? And yet, what have we done? Make ourselves suffer so much? Why do we do this foolishly? Yes, can we, as those who are involved in a life of suffering, not do so? The answer must be dumbfounding: No, we have to do it. Why do we have to do it? Because we have to. We need not be surprised by such an irrational logical relationship; we are doing it now.

into the ethical order of individual independent life, we must build a man civilization on the premise of individual existence, because the maximization of survival interests requires us to live in clusters, and all living species must have commonality to ensure the existence and continuity of their populations, and humans are no exception. However, it is the independence of life that we have more than other organisms that are is rental. We gather together and begin social life on the grounds of our independence of life. How dodoeshe the natural commonality of species and the spiritual independence of man merge into one? Is the purpose of our exexistingommon or individual? Are the benefits generated by society common or individual? For the existence of humanity or Foch individual? These differences are sharp and difficult to reconcile. What is the ethical relationship between independent human beings? For whom do we ultimately act in common with each other? For whom is the ultimate purpose of competitive existence? This is not just explainable by selfishness; it is the ethics of life separately. How is this competitive society founded? How does it work? How to realize the interests of each competitor? Without human intelligence, human society cannot be established and run at all.

We have made the needs of each person wise, and each person's wisdom is used to deal with others and with society. The result of this operation is that all the means of dealing with wisdom end up working back on ourselves through others and society. That is to say, all the forces we exert on external society and others return to us without fail, and we receive them as we do. Here is the ultimate reason, the power we give to compete for our independent existence, all of it comes back to us. This is the innate cause of suffering, what we need from the world, from society, frand om others intoxist independently in our individual lives, and in the end, all of these costs still have to be paid for by ourselves. The more we ask for, the tougher the competition process and means, the more fierce and harsh, the more difficult it is to separate, the more and deeper the suffering of each of us, the more unbearable. This very simple logical relationship can be deduced once we know what we are fighting for in our life. Isn't it just fighting against ourselves? Isn't it just undermining and harming ourselves?

I remember clearly when I was nine years old, I was walking home from school, and on the mountain road, I suddenly thought, "Isn't the other person yourself? The other is me. I always remembered this phrase in my heart, but I didn't realize that this is a heavenly question, that human beings have not understood until now.
