Friends:
This World is Messed Up in Craving!

The Buddha once told a deity:
This world is suffering from Death,
Troubled by ageing, decay and sickness,
Wounded by the Dart of constant
<http://What-Buddha-Said.net/drops/II/The_3_kinds_of_Craving.htm> Craving!
Always is it burning with Desire and Lust...
This world is addicted to Delight and Pleasure,
Since dragged around by this urge and longing,
 <http://What-Buddha-Said.net/drops/II/The_3_kinds_of_Craving.htm> Craving
must be cut, to break free from bondage
and reach the only absolute freedom: Nibbāna...

Comments:

clinging to something... Craving is Mental Slavery!
Craving is a Prison of urge...
