Can We Ever Be Free of Suffering?

If suffering is the price consciousness pays for becoming localised, can we ever be free of suffering or without longing? Rupert responds that our true nature remains in its pristine condition, and we can liberate ourself from the sorrow and conflict that comes from the sense of separation. Everyone knows times of the absence of longing, so we know that it is possible to be liberated from longing and unhappiness. The periods of longing diminish and are replaced by a peace that doesn't disappear but goes into the background. It can be like a death to the apparent separate self. The longing is like the moth to the flame. There is nothing to do, only be.
