SUFFERING continued

we need to understand that all of what we call as "me & mine" and work so ardently for is neither "us nor ours". ALL of it will be taken away including this body. suffering arises from the FALSE SOCIETY INDOCTRINATED CONCEPTION that this is mine (the physical possessions).That i as i am, am unfulfilled & i constantly need to acquire & maintain. i constantly need to accomplish,add & maintain failing which i will have to live with my sense of discontent & lack. when we fail to accomplish (health,wealth, relationships) or maintain {health,wealth,relationships(including death) } suffering arises.
in this critical moment if one is bestowed with intelligence he throws away (out of deep frustration though) everything that he had been falsely clinging on to as "himself & his". example ,failure of a relationship with one person takes away the fantasy from that relationship. people take a vow never to fall in love again after a bitter break up. during this moment of grief a window to our true self and real possibilities is opened up as we unhook from the outer world (out of shear pain & frustration though) and sink into the inner world of our real inner self.
At this juncture intelligence would again be needed to clearly be able to perceive this phenomenon ( to be able to see the scenery through the newly opened window of possibility) of two separate worlds, two separate identities . one superficial society given SOCIETAL identity the other actual self or the EXISTENTIAL identity.
