Look, the romantic notion of suffering being somehow virtuous is plain stupid. We come here to 3D, experience some form of "pain" or "hurt" due to some lack of balance yet to be addressed, then dramatize this pain which results in the creation of "suffering". A suffering condition is not virtuous in itself because it involves no consciousness nor any dedication whatsoever, all it is is an ad hoc reaction to a separation imposed by one's imbalance.

@zenmaster: "Acceptance"....of what, exactly?...

Of yourself.

i think suffering is rarely there just bc of some flaw on our part like a "lack of acceptance"...i think it's often unavoidable & always there w/ purpose

Why do you see that as a flaw rather than an opportunity? I'm pretty sure Ra said everything is perfect.

i don't see suffering as a flaw. i don't see it as something caused by not accepting something or not balancing something. i think the root cause of suffering is a need. i'm only seeing perfection here. i see it as lifting weights & growing stronger

most times we have the choice to end the suffering by suicide. it's not "plain stupid" to think 1 could get brownie points in an afterlife for choosing to suffer instead of leave
