Bodhidharma Suffering Quotations

Life and death are important. Don't suffer them in vain.

All the suffering and joy we experience depend on conditions.

Not suffering another existence is reaching the Way.

To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss.

To have a body is to suffer.

To have a body is to suffer. Does anyone with a body know peace? Those who understand this detach themselves from all that exists and stop imagining or seeking anything. The sutras say, "To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss." When you seek nothing, you're on the Path.
