【ENG DUB】Inner Peace & Freedom 03—— The Suffering of Change expands greed, while greed increase suffering  | The Reality of life is suffering | 变苦增长贪欲，贪欲增长痛苦

We are constantly pursuing happiness, but why do we end up with suffering?
Can you see through the cycle from happiness to suffering?

.................................

In summary, the root of desire is the suffering of change (happiness). By constantly habituating and increasing the attachment to the suffering of change (happiness), desire arises.
If a desire is not satisfied, it will cause psychological sufferings such as the suffering of not getting what one wants, the suffering of separation from what one loves, and the suffering of encountering what one dislikes. It may also indirectly lead to physical illnesses.
If the desire is satisfied, then due to habituation, it will grow stronger, turning into greed or even avarice.
If the greed and avarice cannot be continuously satisfied, it will lead to stronger psychological suffering and negative emotions, as well as various physical pains.
If the greed and avarice can be continuously satisfied, that's even worse. It will quickly consume one's energy and spirit, causing rapid aging, illness, and death.

Now let's summarize from another perspective. 
Human beings, driven by various physical and psychological needs, have to constantly explore and learn to find fast and convenient ways to meet those needs. 
In order to get the conditions for satisfying their needs, humans have to work hard.

While meeting their needs, attachment arises and grows, which further gives rise to various physical and psychological sufferings. 
Being compelled by various physical and psychological sufferings, humans are constantly seeking methods to alleviate them. 
Yet, when their suffering is alleviated, attachment arises and grows too, giving rise to various negative emotions such as anger, creating a vicious circle.
This is our life.

In this high-tech era, both in the East and the West, with the lack of faith and the decline in morality, most people advocate individualism, hedonism, and liberalism. 
More and more addictive activities are emerging, and humanity is falling from grace.
More and more factors lead to psychological illnesses, and their incidence rate is also increasing. 
The future of humanity is really alarming!
