"Thinking that we can find some lasting pleasure and avoid pain is
what in Buddhism is called samsara, a hopeless cycle that goes round and round
endlessly and causes us to suffer greatly. The very first noble truth of the
Buddha points out that suffering is inevitable for human beings as long as we
believe that things last-that they don't disintegrate, that they can be counted
on to satisfy our hunger for security."
