Abstract

This paper intends to relate pain with suffering. In the natural world how do we try to look at these two important aspects of human life? This is a unique experience that an individual undergoes in certain environment. But the intention to do away with such hard feelings is not very easy, although every human being has a natural desire within oneself to be free from pain and suffering. It is needed for an individual and also for society to be free from pain and suffering in order to have an overall well-being. An approach to understand the matter deeply and intensions to quit from suffering may show us the path of relief. It is a way that helps to heal the world by alleviating suffering.
