"Never mind what I have been taught. Forget about theories and prejudgments and stereotypes. I want to understand the true nature of life. I want to know what this experience of being alive really is. I want to apprehend the true and deepest qualities of life, and I don't want to accept somebody else's explanation. I want to see it for myself."

"Suffering is a big term in Buddhist thought. It is a key term and should be thoroughly understood. The Pali word is 'dukkha', and it does just mean the agony of the body. It means the deep, subtle, sense of unsatisfactoriness which is a part of every mind moment... the essence of life is suffering, said the Buddha."
