Is it possible to live a life without suffering?

How do you see your ideal career? What would you like to be tomorrow, next month, next year? What you ideally want to do in 5 years? Who is next? What surrounds you? How do you feel after 10 years? What are you doing? What do you have? And when you die and how? .. If you describe in detail your ideal life, you will discover the love, freedom, prosperity, wealth. It is a life without problems. It does not hurt, loss, illness, frustration, people you do not like ... The ideal way of life - this is the way without suffering. Did you see or know of a man who lived his life without suffering? Such a person does not exist, because you can not live your life happy and avoid suffering, taking advantage of other people's experiences.

Parents and other older relatives are mistaken on this point, trying to forbid children to do what they think will make them unhappy. Wasting energy on the broadcast of experience, causing resistance and alienation from their children. You can not learn to live on other people's mistakes. Therefore it is impossible to live a life without suffering. Through suffering we learn to live happily ever after. This is indicated by the ancient myths and fairy tales, as in the life of the main characters there is something that causes suffering, then, overcoming the obstacles encountered, they acquire such spiritual qualities that make them happy. Buddha gave the world the spiritual experience that expressed in the so-called four noble truths: 1) There is suffering; 2) suffering has a reason; 3) suffering can be stopped; 4) is known to the path leading to it. The first truth about the presence of suffering says that it necessarily experiencing any living creature, and avoids pain nobody can. The second tells the truth about the cause of suffering, when the volatile material goods and spiritual values ​​of people want to see permanent and suffering in any of their changes. The truth of the cessation of suffering argues that all suffering can be stopped, if at all, to give up any desire and to what is no longer attached. And the way to end suffering is to use the eight principles: 1) exemption from error 2) the correct rational thinking 3) kindness, openness, honesty 4) The peace5) The correct way of life and no disruption to you or others 6) self-education and self-control; 7) attention, active, alert mind ; 8) concentration through deep meditation on the true nature of the world. In brackets I wrote a contemporary term that is used in the description of mental health. Today, this philosophy of Buddhism based medicine dealing with diseases of the body, psychotherapy, designed to heal the soul and spiritual direction, strengthen the spirit of man. I also propose to use these ancient truths and principles, as they are today and are effective if they are followed. So, the truth of the second Buddha's philosophy that, before going to his happiness, you need to find the cause of suffering.
