I am not suggesting a complete abandonment of the suffering/end of suffering continuum, but rather a side-by-side paralleling of the two continua so they strengthen each other at key points on our spiritual journey. The value of maintaining a relationship with the suffering/end of suffering continuum is that it is very approachable and accessible. At a certain level of intensity we all know we are struggling. It catches our attention, and though we have many defenses against being accountable for our struggles, at some point the fact that we are still suffering begins to compel the spiritual journey forward.
