Buddhism Day by Day: Illness as an Opportunity to Attain a Higher, Nobler State of Life
“Buddhism views illness as an opportunity to attain a higher, nobler state of life. It teaches that, instead of agonizing over a serious disease, or despairing of ever overcoming it, We should use use illness as a means to build a strong, compassionate self, which in turn will make it possible for us to be truly victorious.”
