Life Satisfaction, Suffering, the Divine, and Mental Training

Was there ever a time when you felt satisfied and glad to have lived? Rousseau says that you would have felt that way when you did good, and my friend LL and I talk about our experiences with this as well as the philosopher’s idea of a scientific man’s God, suffering and self-knowledge, and practices, such as mindfulness meditation, to reduce suffering and build wisdom.  What has caused you suffering?  How are you your best friend and your worst enemy?
