Pain and Suffering in Buddhism is part of the Buddhist View Series, which explores ordinary aspects of life through a Buddhist perspective. This volume looks at one of the most universal features of human experience: the presence of discomfort, difficulty, and the mind’s response to them.

Rather than offering techniques or promises of relief, the book reflects on how pain and suffering are actually lived. Through everyday observations and a calm, reflective tone, it considers how physical discomfort and mental struggle become intertwined, and how a clearer understanding of the mind’s habits may sometimes soften the burden we carry.

Written in accessible language, Pain and Suffering in Buddhism invites readers to approach difficulty not as a problem to be solved, but as an experience to be understood.
