Suffering Comments

Ignorance is the root cause of suffering, Darkness is the absence of light, Suffering is the offspring of darkness, The moment the light of knowledge falls suffering does away with on its own..! ! !

Another great clear redactory poem about suffering and the weaves of lightness, darkness, illumination through knowledge.

(2) Suffering, as you have said, is the outcome of our ignorance (or illiteracy) . Psychology has devoted reams on the complex process of learning in human beings and in animals. Learning leads us to knowledge and to the removal of our suffering and not the other way round. Thanks for sharing the poem.

(1) According to the above logic, ignorance and darkness both are responsible for a man's suffering. At the same time it is said that 'Suffering is the real teacher.... to teach us life.... Suffering nurtures the seed of happiness'. I beg to differ. Just as the absence of darkness is light, the absence of ignorance is knowledge or enlightenment.

The genesis of the role played by sufferings in our life as also the rewards showered by it subsequently has been wonderfully accomplished in this though provoking poem. Thanks for sharing.10 points.
