How To Conquer Suffering Poem by Arun Maji

How To Conquer Suffering

Rating: 5.0


It's not pain that pains us more.
It's often our response to pain
that pains us more.
Pain is given to you
but response is yours.
And it's your response to pain
That causes you suffering.

Think before you respond.
Your inappropriate response can turn
bad situation far worse.

You can minimise your suffering
by replacing thought of pain
with thought of something positive.

If your room is dark now
and you fight darkness with sword,
does that darkness disappear?
No. Never.

If you light up a candle in your room,
darkness disappears immediately.

No matter how dark your path is
There is always some candle hiding
For you to light up.
Look for it, and light it up.

So, if you are in painful situation now,
ask yourself what is your candle?
And light up that candle.
Om Shanti. Peace be with you.
