Why am I suffering?

Because of ignorance I think of myself as what I am not. This sense of 'separate self' cause sufferings. Illusions like  - 'I am angry', 'I am in pain', 'I am old', 'I am intelligent', 'I am better than my neighbour' cause wrong perceptions like Ekatva, Mamatva, Kartatva, Bhokrutva etc. These illusions cause passions. And I weave the passions as a spider does and get stuck within.


If I am in my 'real self', then there is no illusion. There is no good or bad. I neither age nor die. There are no desires because I am ever complete, ever pristine and ever pure. And liberation happens.
