Bigger the tragedy lesser the Suffering

Pain is real, Suffering is illusion. Pain is physical, suffering is psychological. Pain is caused by external realities, suffering in produced internally by the mind. Pain is healed by medicine; suffering is cured by understanding and acceptance.

People say, the world is going to end. It is an old Joke repeated periodically to entertain the idle Mind. Hollywood has made enough money by making movies on this topic. Sometimes super intelligent being come from Mars to destroy the earth, Other times it  is the prediction the Mayan Calendar or by some mad Scientist. As long as USSR Was powerful Nuclear War was another threat projected for the end of the world. It looks like the world was us to live in a state of fear.

Religious leaders too cited Scriptures time and again to frighten the common people regarding this issue and it was good for their business and invariably made lots of money.

But why are we afraid of the world coming to an end? In fact we should feel happy about it. When death comes to an individual person, he or she has nothing more to lose, so he or she neither has pain nor Suffering, but it creates lots of suffering among that person's near and dear ones. Though it sounds ridicules, we have got used to it. We show our love for the dead by crying thus creating lots of noise pollution. This suffering is unwarranted but since culture demands it, and not much harm is done by crying and beating our chest.

But think about a day, where everyone is dead. Nobody is going to feel pain or suffering. It will be the day of peace and harmony, a day when the classless society is finally established.

When a tragedy occurs to an Individual, he invariably feels it is not fair, and asks the question: "Why me?", though he does not spells it out, his whole being echos the question: "Why not others?". And it brings in mental turmoil and sufferings into his life. But if everyone is affected by a tragedy, it means nothing; there will be pain but not suffering.

If everyone fails, then no one minds it. It becomes a joke. So end of the world means equal distribution of tragedy. It is an occasion of pain without any Suffering. Pain without Suffering is a time to rejoice, a Sign of enlightenment and an absolute liberation.
