Unhappiness, discontent and the misery that we
experience in our life is caused by our ignorance or confused knowledge of who
or what we really are. If we limit ourself by identifying a body as -I, we will
feel desire for whatever we think is necessary for our survival in that body,
and for whatever we think will make our life in that body more comfortable and
pleasant. Likewise, we will feel fear and dislike of whatever we think
threatens our survival in that body, and of whatever we think will make our
life in it less comfortable or pleasant. When we do not get whatever we desire
or like, and when we cannot avoid whatever we fear or dislike, we feel unhappy,
discontented or miserable.
