The 'I' Does Not Evolve or Change

Why Do We Endure Suffering?

A man asks why he had to endure so much suffering in order to come to know the nature of his being. Rupert suggests that an inevitable part of growing up is that our being becomes mixed with the content of experience and becomes wedded to it. We seem to be limited by it. We suffer because it is painful to extract our being from this amalgam of experience. We have to lose all the ways we define ourself.
