Drama? If this is drama, you're contributing to it with your link. It's very mild if it is drama. Personally, I'm enjoying it whatever it is.

Anyways, interesting read. Although it assumes that getting shelter and sustenance is easy for everyone, it can easily relate to people such as ourselves who are able to afford luxuries such as the internet. It also assumes that you won't get chronic and intense pain, but still, for people who this is not the case (which is most likely all of us here), this advice is pretty sound.

The death thing is also pretty interesting. I once attended a lecture where a man told a story with a message similar to this. His daughter had asked him what it would be like after she died. And he asked her "Do you remember what it was like 20 years ago?" She responded that she didn't know because she wasn't born yet. He said "That's what it will be like after you die." I think it's hard for people to understand what it's like to be unconscious since it's something that can't be experienced. This is why it's hard to realize that you aren't going to be some floating entity in a void after you die. I know this took me a while to realize, and this realization has pretty much calmed my fear of death.

I wouldn't say these four remedies cures my suffering (not that I think I suffer much), but it would be something that I could contemplate on when I am suffering. Sometimes you can see a message such as the one you posted, understand what it means and why it is being said, but still not understand deeply enough the implications to have some meaningful change in your life.
