Transcript
00:00The Buddha did say that life is suffering, that suffering is fact, but it didn't say suffering is inevitable. Never.
00:08Suffering is optional. Suffering comes from our misplaced subjective choices.
00:14Truth is not really fact. Yes, facts don't lie, but don't we choose our facts as per convenience?
00:22So we suffer for a reason. The reason is that the subject keeps itself at the center of everything.
00:28The more the subject is present, the more present is suffering.
00:34The more one is present in his or her own life, the more life becomes suffering.
