It is said that attachment causes pain. This is true.
However, the subject of the obsessions that make us suffer is not diverse. The subject of obsession is always one.
It's just a pain.
In other words, we suffer because we cling to suffering.
This is an amazing story.
The story that we do not suffer because we are attached to something bad, but simply because we are attached to pain, needs to be understood more carefully.
Clinging to pain means seeing only pain.
Let's take this as an example of a red ballpoint pen. Since we hate red ballpoint pens, you can try not to think about red ballpoint pens for a minute. Then surely we will only think of the red pen for that minute.
It looks like this.
The obsession with seeing only pain, that we have to get rid of pain somehow, makes us unable to get rid of it.
We can think of a savior concept here.
A savior is simply a being who is supposed to free a person from suffering.
And that's why this myth of the Savior actually multiplies our suffering. People suffer more because they expect a savior. It is like this.
The true identity of the savior is someone who is obsessed with suffering more than anyone. He said that there should be no more pain than other people, and he only saw such pain. So there is always pain around him.
So, who will be the savior?
The person who is most afraid to suffer, that is, the person who is most afraid, becomes the savior. The most feared person becomes a savior.
And the most feared savior said to others:
"Do not be scared."
He actually wanted to say this to himself. You raise this voice for yourself to hear. Fear blocked her ears, so she couldn't hear well, so she screamed even louder.
However, the savior misunderstood that he conveyed these words to others, "Don't be afraid." They misunderstood that they raised their voices to calm them down.
Target from the words of the Savior, he is a victim.
The savior must find the unfortunate victim who is supposed to suffer in this world, and he tries to stand by her side. For example, by establishing victims who are harassed by unjust and evil strong people, and assisting victims in a triangular structure of strong, victim and savior, in reality the victim triumphs over the strong through power. savior, or escape from the domination of the powerful want to realize.
It is as if a third party, a savior, intervenes on the chessboard that unfolds in the structure of strong adoption and victimization. And the direction is always toward a one-sided reality where the victim wins.
The Savior doesn't know now.
