Here I ask the question: how should we suffer? Asking this question presupposes another question, which is Why we should suffer, a question I’d like to explore with you before progressing to the ‘how’ of it. Suffering is more than pain. If we cast an eye over the dictionary, it is defined primarily as to undergo or endure; and secondarily as to go, or pass through, or be subjected to, a painful experience. Pain is an immediate sensation, and usually experienced physically even when it is caused by abstract rather than concrete manifestations. Moral or emotional pain produces biological effects – the now-cliched idea of ‘heartache’, or the more contemporary notion of the ‘breakdown’. The language we use to express emotional pain reflects that physical quality: we speak of being wounded or hurt. Grief is a pang for which we seek healing. We also speak of metaphorical pain – the agony of separation, the stab of betrayal. But physical pain is only ever a symptom – it is a message our body sends our brain, telling it to stop or avoid the action causing the unpleasant sensation. Pain is a healthy reaction: it insists that we be in the here and now. We are not distanced from pain: by its very nature it cannot be avoided or overlooked as it is a message that requires and receives our prompt attention. When we feel sudden and acute agony we are one with the pain, present to it while it lasts. Dealing with it and overcoming it take all our attention. We assume, perhaps falsely, that pain will have an end. When pain does not conform to this expectation; when in fact it becomes part of our life, is experienced long-term, we acquire a measure of distance from even acute pain. We move from a helpless position in which instinct takes over to a place where we are consciously aware of what we are undergoing: we suffer. Pain is centred in the body, and stills the mind to all but itself; suffering is experienced by more than our body. As Eckhart says in Sermon 13:

In many ways the question of suffering goes to the heart of the meaning of mysticism, and this is because, for Eckhart, our experience of suffering shows us directly our separation from God. But also our relation to suffering shows us our relation to the world, not only in how we conceive it but also how we act within it, especially in the ethical sphere. The question of suffering brings to light what we hold to be true or real or good, and whatever we hold to be true or real or good shapes our stance towards all that is, including our selfawareness or sense of being. In The Book of Divine Consolation Eckhart begins by saying:

An early collection of basic spiritual ground-rules, generally known as the ‘Talks of Instruction’ (Rede der Underscheidunge – that is RdU) are the inspiration for this paper. The collection was probably put together by Brother (not yet Master) Eckhart himself between 1294 and 1298, at the time when he was vicar of Thuringia and a prior of Erfurt, his convent of origin. As has often been pointed out, many of the main themes of Eckhart’s teaching are to be found in twenty-three (or twenty-four) short chapters, but without the full range of the speculative thought characteristic of his later writings, such as the Book of Divine Consolation.
早期收集的基本精神基本规则，通常被称为“教学谈话”(Rede der Underscheidunge -即RdU)是本文的灵感来源。这些收藏品可能是由埃克哈特修士(当时还不是大师)自己在1294年至1298年之间收集起来的，当时他是图林根的牧师，也是埃尔福特修道院的院长，埃尔福特修道院是他的故乡。正如人们经常指出的那样，埃克哈特教导的许多主题都可以在23(或24)个简短的章节中找到，但没有他后来的作品所特有的全面的思辨思想，比如《神慰之书》。
