The Experience of Dukkha and Domanassa among Puthujjanas
Ashin Sumanacara
Mahidol University
In the Pāli
canon, the terms dukkha
and domanassa
are used with reference to different types and degrees of suffering
that must be understood according to context. This article first
examines the meaning of puthujjana
in the Pāli Nikāyas.
It then analyses the contextual meanings of dukkha and domanassa,
including a discussion of their types based on a thorough
investigation of the Pāli Nikāyas.
Finally, it examines the explanation in the Pāli Nikāyas of
the arising of dukkha
and domanassa,
and, in particular, how lust, hatred, delusion and some other
negative emotions are considered to cause physical pain and mental
pain among puthujjanas.
