the truth of suffering



the first noble truth, the truth of suffering, is the first real insight of pracitioner. it is quite delightful that such a practitioner actually has the guts, bravery, and clarity to see pain in such a precise and subtle way. we can actually divide pain into sections and dissect it. we can see it as it is, which is quite victorious. that is why it is called the truth of suffering.
