Creation
Evolution can be described as a change. When something is developed into a more complex form for its own good. When the time of contradiction arrives people who are dwell, mind made, feeding on delight, self-luminous, moving through the air, glorious- and will somehow stay that way for a long period of time will be revolutionized. They will be renewed into being who are dwell, mind made, feeding on delight, self-luminous, moving through the air, glorious- and they somehow stay that way for a long period of time until a new time of contraction and expansion arrives.

For someone to see suffering in such a way as Siddhattha did can change you completely. It opens the doors of reality and can change your own way of living. It changed Siddhattha so much that a hall, though adorned and decorated like the palace of Sakka, seemed to him like a cemetery. He no longer approved of his way of living. He saw things with different eyes and wanted to change his way of living. I do not think Siddhattha did well by leaving behind his wife and son. That was his family and you do not leave family behind like that. The Chain of Causation was the first utterance as Buddha.

Death is at last which will end the grief, lamentation, suffering, and sorrow.
The human spiritual problem and

However, it becomes easier to understand Samanas’s tough time and the reason why they are persisting in ascetic practices and I learned that suffering really is a
