How does Norodha (The truth of the cessation of suffering) differ from encouraging complacency?
I am teaching Intro to World Religions to grade 11 students. I taught the four noble truths of Buddhism yesterday, and one student stumped me with this question.
If we eliminate attachment and desire in order to end suffering, where do we find motivation to to work or do good deeds? If we are seeking success in any field, does that not come from a desire for success?
I answered to the best of my ability, but I would be interested in the answers from people who know more about this than I do.
