Suffering is created by the mind.
And yet without the mind, there would be no learning, nothing to fall into and through.

Thanks a lot Tim.Originally Posted by Tutor
I feel that the reason for my suffering is because I associate more with "John" that with other people. I see things from his point of view. But when I realize I am just as much any other person I meet, I guess things will change.

Yes... for there is nothing to take, and everything to have. Life is giving, in one way or another, and through surrendering I can accept the gift of giving that has been bestowed upon me. Life is grace, whether we choose to see it or not.Originally Posted by Tutor
I have had practical troubles with surrendering. I did not know exactly how to do it. But now I can do it, I just realize that I truly know nothing of myself as I am right now.
Things will turn out all right now.
But what is language? I perceive it differently. Is it pure subjective interpretation?
And... something I suspect, but am not sure about at all. Pain is not suffering? It's just a sensation? I have heard of masters who can endure any pain. Will I still feel pain, but not percieve of it as suffering? Or will pain just dissapear, just like the fears?

Pain is a sensation, and a necessary part of life. Pain is your body telling you something is not all right. Telling you to change course, to do something different. A warning.Pain is not suffering? It's just a sensation?
Suffering is a decision to hold on to pain. Suffering is knowing that something will cause you pain, and doing it anyway- sometimes unconsciously. Suffering is believing that pain is necessary and choosing it. Suffering is having the choice to hold on to a past pain or letting it go, and choosing to hold on to it- sometimes for a seemingly good reason.
Suffering is attachment to pain.
