In this brief excerpt from Eckhart Tolle’s teaching, he references a Buddhist saying that suffering is inevitable wherever one goes or whatever one does, emphasizing that it will be encountered sooner or later.

The passage frames suffering as a universal condition that can be transcended through spiritual awakening.
