There is much writing about suffering or unsatisfactoriness in 'material' terms.
We talk of inevitable suffering of death and loss and things we get attached to.
Fine. But I think there is only one form of suffering, which is 'imaterial' in the sense of gaining more enlightenment, and that is suffering that comes from a sense of being seperated from what you feel you are part of, whatever you call it (God, Oneness, Infinite Intelligence, Nothingness).
I think we all go through life with this unsatisfactoriness unless/until we find fulfillment and satisfactoriness, through experiencing communion with the higher self of One and All or whatever?
