Is suffering good? | August 26, 2025

In short and from a purely profane point of view: suffering cannot be said to be good and indeed modern man has made many great technological strides to defeat suffering. Indeed, the modern world is constituted with the one intention in mind to lesser the suffering of men in their fundamentally depraved and hopeless condition, the human condition. I don't think that there are any sinister or evil intentions behind men who seek to lesser their own suffering and the suffering of other men, but I do hold that this great war against suffering and really the circumstances of the human condition has made modern man miss out on the sacred and the divine, and indeed these many great and often good strides towards less suffering has made man fully occupied and concerned with his own image, instead of trying to connect with the all and the sacred aspects of the creation. Verily more, it is the case that modern man have distanced himself from God, Jehovah, our creator, and as a result he has filled his inner spiritual void with his own self-perceived greatness, his own love for himself, the great idolatry of modern man, and this has lead him down the serpent's path, for even while modern man may be of a pure and good conscience, his belief in his own greatness and superiority over the Earth and the creation has invariably created within him a hubris that has lead to our current dilapidated and decaying world, of great conflagrations and strides, all of this in an attempt to remove man from the material world. Yes, by embracing God, the creator, you are removing yourself from the material world, but this is not the path, the righteous path, that modern man has chosen to traverse: what he is doing may be admirable, but the invariable results of his enterprise are undeniably not admirable, for modern man's sense of justice is derived from his wish and his impulse to liberate himself, but in his attempt to liberate himself from pain and form suffering he has mistakenly fallen for the propaganda of the serpent, and instead of becoming enlightened by moving beyond the material and indeed the suffering, he as embraced the material circumstances that made him suffer greatly in the first place. This leitmotif of our modern world: man's epic struggle against the forces of nature, the divinely inspired forces of providence has destroyed not only the material world but indeed also the spiritual world in an accelerating fashion, for we have entered the era, the last cosmic cycle before the dawn of rebirth, of the Kali Yuga and at the present moment the destruction and the decay has intensified and is accelerating as the world moves towards the final judgement of the wrath, the wrath not because the creator hates his creation, but indeed because the creator loves his creation, something modern men have failed and will continue to fail to grasp as they move into overdrive and the world comes apart. Suffering in and of itself is not good, for suffering acts to put balance of man's material circumstances into an adverse position, but suffering is also needed and to the extent that suffering can be explained as a divine reaction against the liberal and depraved ways of modern men, suffering is at the very least righteous and justified by decree of divine providence. Disease, decay, and death, all happen cyclically for a reason, and while men may struggle to understand their ill-ways, especially in the context of the humanist axiom, they are surely deserving of their fate, not because of any individual action taken on their part, but because of how modern men as a collective are moving about in the world; disasters and other material adversities happens for a reason for they are an integral part of the creators (Jehovah's) divine vengeance. But Jehovah isn't striking against man out of spite or out of sincere hatred; Jehovah is striking against man for the precise reason that man is upsetting the natural order and for every system that exists in natural harmony with the all, but that is then upset, a reaction must be expected, and such can also be proven to be the case with the application of sound and profane science: chemistry and physics in particular.

    So can suffering be said to be good? No, suffering is not good, for suffering is the expected counteraction to the serpent, to the forces opposed to the natural order, or the forces that exerts disorder on the creation, but to the extend that suffering can be said to work for the betterment of all sentient life, it can be said to be a sign of the creators love, and indeed love is as I've explained on previous occasions not indiscriminate acceptance. Would it be considered lovely and lovingly for a father to allow his son to indulge in sexual intercourse outside the confines of marriage and for procreation? No, this would be no kind of love; indeed it would be the negation and the complete absence of love. Even if the father intended to be lovely and show love towards his son, it is in the end an act of sin and depravity to engage sexually outside of the station of marriage and for the purpose of procreation and that father would not be loving his son by enabling and excusing sin. Do note that the humanist axiom pains man as a helpless creature that in his natural state would be completely defenseless against the demons of the serpent and consequently man would inevitably fall in love with himself and other men, for such is the depraved intention of the serpent, to put the scales of the celestial order out of balance and out of tune with the dearest and sincere intentions of the creator. But life on the planet is not easy, and during our atheistic and materialistic time, life has in the end only been made harder and suffering has been brought even more so to the forefront, the vanguard, of what it means to be a man, to be human. Verily, our entire modern civilization is constructed around the essence of suffering, and indeed men are more and more preoccupied by the obsession with suffering and the theatrics of curing the inevitable, the wrath of God's divine vengeance. So in the end, when the wrath comes and when all words have been spoken, all sins forgiven, and all pages written, man will not avoid his inevitable fate: suffering. Instead of running away from suffering, men of ascendant rank move towards the inevitable and they embrace death, and in the end only those men can be said to have conquered the material circumstances of life, those are the heroes to be in the era of rebirth.

    You may try to avoid suffering but as long as you live in the world, the material world, this will be a futile enterprise, for only when you move towards the light and the true salvation and the liberation in knowing that the material is temporary and the sacred is eternal, can you be sure to suffer less and indeed become completely free from the suffering of the material domain, but until then you will suffer for such is the circumstances of the human condition and indeed any sentient life and while you may think that you are doing the righteous thing you are still mistaken as long as you remain in the world. Depart from the material domain and seek the light, become one with the all and then you will have attained the state of Nirvana. As long as you continue to live for the material and expect that the material will bring you comfort you will suffer, and as long as you suffer in the dark and in willful ignorance of the creator and his love for you and the entire creation, you will remain in the cycle of suffering and the serpent will continue to swirl around your neck and the demons will continue to laugh at you as you become more depraved, more sick, and more corrupt. A pure conscience and a modest lifestyle is indeed all you need. In the meantime I continue to call on all far-seeing men to embrace sexual and moral purity – practice celibacy.
