Character: Ananda

And every time, no matter what suffering you meet, you will see that the origins of everyone are in fear, doubt, jealousy and envy, as well as in the thirst for money and fame. On these roots grow all the other passions in which people perish. The other half of sorrows stems from blindness, from the idea that life is a small period from birth to death, deeply personal and cut off from the rest of the world. And this main prejudice prevents us from seeing the whole universe clearly, from understanding our place in it.
