Our suffering whether mental, emotional, physical, spiritual or otherwise, is something that we tend to live with due to unawareness of its root cause.
In dharma understanding, this is recognised as root cause of the spiritual journey path.
Exploring a spiritual journey from bound in ignorance- of unaware attachment to the body, (or self-clinging to mere concept or label within the mind, projected on top of the aggregates); to recognition of the deity within, (and the selfless of all phenomena both self & other). The emptiness of awareness (not void but luminous), the true nature of reality. Welcome to the middle way path free of the two extremes of existence (either eternalism or nihilism).
