A Suffering Endless! Poem by Ramesh T A

Why are men suffering endless in the world?
Can there be redemption from the hell here?
Men suffer for the mistakes committed already;
Many suffer for problems beyond their control.

Alternately after day comes night everyday;
Also alternately after night day will come!
Alternately after enjoyment suffering comes;
So also after suffering enjoyment will follow!

Naturally this is the thing that happens ever;
Exceptions are there in every act of life too!
On such a time what has to be done for good?
This is the thing one has to think about well.

Feelings are due to the body and its sensations;
Emotion is due to attachment, desire and likes;
Mind rules body but amplifies emotional matters;
Spirit is nonattached to all these activities of body!

Knowing this truth to immunize sufferings follow
The path of spirit to overcome sufferings of body!
We suffer and enjoy due to the sensations of body;
If one follows nonattachment one will forget ills!
