Suffering
Suffering arises from attachment to desires
Suffering can be overcome when attachment to desires ceases

The human tendency is to avoid the difficult truths of life and this in turn leads to suffering.
The root of suffering can be defined as a craving or clinging to the wrong things; searching for stability in a suffering world is the wrong way.

Karma
Actions have consequences; so our lives are conditioned by our past actions.

On Love
Too many people are trying to meet the right person instead of trying to be the right person.
