Buddhists - patient endurance


Expert: Justin Choo - 8/20/2009

Question
Hello, I know different schools of Buddhism have different thoughts.  I've come across the term Patient Endurance.  I'm in constant physical pain. What is patient endurance?  Anything you say will be helpful.

Answer
Hi Marc,

I am not aware of any specific Buddhist term; "patient endurance".  But in simple English interpretation, it would be "bearing whatever that is troubling you with utmost patience".  This is a tall order if one is in constant physical pain.  Whatever it is, a person should seek remedy for whatever problem he faces; while in the meantime have "patient endurance".

Take care.

Justin Choo
