The reasons we suffer can be complex and vary depending on what we believe and where we're from. However, many spiritual and philosophical ideas say that suffering happens when we're not in tune with our true self or higher consciousness. When we're out of sync, we might get attached to things, operate from unawareness, or resist the natural flow of life.
Here are some key perspectives:
Buddhism:
Suffering (dukkha) is caused by attachment (tanha) and ignorance (avidya). The cessation of suffering comes from letting go of attachments and achieving enlightenment (nirvana).
Hinduism:
Suffering results from karma and the illusion (maya) of separation from the divine. Realizing one's true nature as Atman (soul) and its unity with Brahman (universal consciousness) leads to liberation (moksha).
Christianity:
Suffering is often seen as a result of original sin and human free will. It can also be a test of faith and a path to spiritual growth and salvation through Christ.
Islam:
Suffering is viewed as a test from Allah and a means to strengthen faith and character. Patience (sabr) and trust in Allah's wisdom are key to enduring suffering.
Modern Psychology:
Suffering can be seen as a result of cognitive distortions, unresolved trauma, and unmet psychological needs. Healing comes from self-awareness, therapy, and positive relationships.
Existential Philosophy:
Suffering is just a part of being human, coming from the search for meaning in a universe that doesn't seem to care. Finding freedom in our choices and creating personal meaning can help ease that suffering.
Ultimately, suffering prompts introspection, growth, and transformation, guiding individuals toward deeper understanding, compassion, and connection with their true nature or higher purpose.

Redikall Philosophy:
Suffering is an inappropriate response to a person, place, product, or possibility. This is based on incorrect perception, the belief system, and the storage system in the subconscious mind. Hence it can be altered with self-help work.
Self Help Work involves.
1. Easing the emotional response with affirmations containing Catalyst Keywords
2. Challenging perceptions and beliefs and seeking truth
3. Reorganizing the storage in the sub-conscious mind
4. Reprogramming the response system.
