The core of Buddhist teachings revolves around suffering, indicating the inevitability of challenges, discontent, and difficulties in life. While suffering is a common translation of Buddhist concepts, it actually represents a sense of disquiet with the recognition of life's hardships. Buddhism teaches that improving our relationship with suffering can enhance our quality of life, acknowledging that suffering is a part of life, but focusing on transforming our interactions with it. This shift involves embracing emotions and thoughts, understanding our aversions, and fundamentally changing our approach to suffering to enhance overall well-being.
