THIS SITE IS NOT RELIGIOUS. IT IS AN HONEST (MAY BE NOT VERY INTELLIGENT) ATTEMPT TO UNDERSTAND LIFE.

A Thought....

Most people seem to think that being clever and aggressive is enough to live a good life. This is a narrow and rather stupid attitude. Life is much too complex....

Pain

Pain is good. Because if one does not feel one does not really live. Pain sometimes leads to despair. Sometimes it leads to discoveries that ordinary mortals are incapable of. Pain soon turns to anger. Anger when channelised properly is the fountainhead of all great works of art, fiction..... Greater is the pain, the deeper one goes to understand life....

Pain calls attention to unhealthy state of things.

Khalil Gibran puts it even better.

Much of your pain is the bitter potion by which the physician within you heals your sick self.

We fear violence less than our own feelings. Personal, private, solitary pain is more terrifying than what anyone else can inflict.
Jim Morrison

The pain of the mind is very excruciating. There is no morphine to dull it. It keeps gnawing at you and goes with you everywhere.

The only antidote to mental suffering is physical pain.
Karl Marx

Therein lies the psychology of masochism?

My definition of success is to live your life in a way that causes you to feel a ton of pleasure and very little pain - and because of your lifestyle, have the people around you feel a lot more pleasure than they do pain.
Tony Robbins

Even better would be to learn how to cure the pain.

It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.
Julius Caesar

Pain is worse than death. I guess everybody fears death more because it comes only once. Pain is always with you.

Dreaming is a way of escaping from pain and enjoying pleasure.


Illusions commend themselves to us because they save us pain and allow us to enjoy pleasure instead. We must therefore accept it without complaint when they sometimes collide with a bit of reality against which they are dashed to pieces.
Sigmund Freud

There is a way to beat the pain.

Find a place inside where there's joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.
Joseph Campbell

There is no coming to consciousness without pain.
Carl Jung

Yeah. Reality is very painful

Aldous Huxley explains why everybody is so interested in sex.

Amour is the one human activity of any importance in which laughter and pleasure preponderate, if ever so slightly, over misery and pain.

Albert Schweitzer proffers us an advice which very few really act upon.

Whoever is spared personal pain must feel himself called to help in diminishing the pain of others. We must all carry our share of the misery which lies upon the world.

According to Ovid only those who have endured great pain will turn out to be great people. Greatness eludes those who live a life of pleasure.

Endure and persist; this pain will turn to good by and by.
