PAIN, perhaps everyone is aware of what this four letter word means. Most of the words that catch my attention are four lettered like "Love", "Hate' and now these days "Pain" has become my centre of attraction. After all what is "PAIN". Is it a feeling that comes from inside, is it something physical or mental, emotional or psychological? Is it earthly or comes from the universe.
I think pain is a feeling that may arise from all the etiologies that I have listed above. It may come from, heart, mind, body or even soul(those who believe in it). I have experienced almost all kinds of pains in my life and so I believe in all these forms.
I am of the firm belief that although pain is something that is not desirable but it is like a well wisher friend who speaks bitter. A friend who speaks bitter but for our betterment. Pain is a kind of signal that warns us of the coming dangers. Like if my sore throat doesn't pain, will I go to the doctor at right time and get myself treated?
It is not death always scares, many a times it is the pain that compells us to be scared of diseases.This implies to the physical pain arising out of bodily disorders.
Now take an example of mental pain. You see a child working in a tea stall, it somewhere creates pain inside which although not personal but perahps somewhere relates to the scenario of society where we live in. It is the pain that had tocuhed many hearts and that is why we see law coming in between to protect the children from the jaws of child labour.
Now an example of emotional pain that I am going to share with you. We all are aware of dowry deaths, it needs no further elaboration. Looking at these incidences now the next generation is becoming more and more serious about education and employment of girls. Now most of the people want their daughters to be well educated and financially independent.
Psychological pain, I would also talk a bit about it. Have you ever seen some people making hypothetical stories and feeling pain in that. I have seen some and later on they had to be treated by a psychiatrist.
Whatever kind of pain is present on this Earth, I classify it into the kind of earthly pain and the pain from universe????.......................you might feel this class to be little odd but I consider it to be significant one.
To me the damage from ultravoilet rays, excessive heat of sun and other kinds of radiations causing cancerous pathologies, the pain of all those havocs is a kind of pain that comes from universe.
To me pain is an entity that is omnipresent. I think each living being including plants and animals experiences pain, a signal that is agonising but also an useful friend who tries to help life go on.
