Lecture by Swami Tattwamayananda. Duhkha is not a negative philosophy of life, it takes a realistic and complete view. Sankhya philosophy explains the evolutes of material nature both mental and physical. Our difficulty is that we identify with these and forget our transcendental dimension, Atman. We can eradicate suffering by having a comprehensive perspective toward the reality of our life. We break the identification between the seer and the seen. Such a person does not become inactive. Rather, a Raja-Rishi is a person who has the dynamism of a king and the wisdom of a sage. Verses: II.15, II.17, I.2, II.16, I.6
