True realisation of the actual nature of this material world, its perishable, transitory and illusory aspects best dawns on a person in suffering.

Quotations
Suffering
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Tegh Bahadur"
God is in all men, but all men are not in God; that is why we suffer.
-Ramakrishna Paramahamsa
The root cause of all miseries lie hidden in "Me and Mine". If it is my wealth, then
the pain of losing it, if it is my body, then the affliction of sickness... Whereas in
reality, there is nothing yours other than the feeling of your "Being".
-Deep Trivedi
Life is full of misery, loneliness, and suffering - and it's all over much too soon.
-Woody Allen
Suffering is a journey which has an end.
-Matthew Fox
...when I think of you it's with tears, because no one else has such delicate hands that can reach into my soul and calm my fears...
-John Geddes
"A Familiar Rain"
To live is to suffer, to survive is to find some meaning in the suffering.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
If we stop considering ourselves special on the level of physicalities, half our
sorrows will disappear by themselves. From sickness to death, events to
accidents; what happens to others, can always happen to us and our beloved
ones too... Then what's the point in grieving about them for so long?
-Deep Trivedi
Shared joys make a friend, not shared sufferings.
-Friedrich Nietzsche
You know quite well, deep within you, that there is only a single magic, a single power, a single salvation...and that is called loving. Well, then, love your suffering. Do not resist it, do not flee from it. It is your aversion that hurts, nothing else.
-Hermann Hesse
