Ananta teaches that suffering arises from identification with the body, whereas the witnessing awareness remains untouched by pain and resistance.

The one who witnesses all of this, awareness, is not suffering from anything.
Unresisting awareness allows even extended pain to be accepted without the burden of suffering.
When we move beyond the body as a reference point, the sensation of pain becomes modified and loses its sting.
