Guest guest Posted March 12, 2002 Report Share Posted March 12, 2002 " sriram rao " Tuesday, March 12, 2002 02:29 Question of Suffering - Law of Karma - Maya.... Hi, I think most hindu texts are quite clear that suffering is due to desires born out of attachment. Attachment is due to wrong identification with the lower nature which again is due to avidya or ignorance. Suffering is a means to lose ones attachment to the lower nature and thereby gain vidya and understand ones real nature. The story in the Upanishads, about the two birds, one enjoying fruits and the other remaining detached is quite relevant here. Regards.
