SUMMARY:How Sad is Your Love
DESCRIPTION:How does it change us to reflect on suffering and impermanence\, and on the ways we create our own pain? The point is that it shows us that we can turn our life around by finding a new direction that is spiritual rather than mundane. And when we set out on the path in that new direction\, we carry within us a vivid understanding of how entrenched suffering is\, and a warm love for all those who are floundering.
