【The Origin of Suffering】-  Identifying the afflictions

【There are four parts to this:  
1. Identifying the afflictions】  

The first one will describe what afflictions are.  We must first understand this.  We must understand what afflictions are in accordance to the teaching.   

Secondly, 
【2. The order in which they arise  
3. The causes of the afflictions  
4. The faults of the afflictions  
1" Identifying the afflictions 】

Why do we need to know the order in which they arise?  From the order in which they arise, you can find this...Oh!  This is the root source of it.  And then you will see what the causes are for this and what the faults are.  After you understand this, know the faults, you will then be prepared to destroy them.  To destroy them, you must find the cause, the roots.  Just like that.  You will find all these, including the subjective aspects of afflictions.  Once you clearly know every aspect of this, that's when it will be easy to apply the remedy.  After you apply the remedies to the afflictions, all your sufferings will be alleviated.  Only when you have solved your own problems can you then help others!
