Source: Wisdom Library: Maha Prajnaparamita Sastra±·²¹±¹²¹»å³Üḥk³ó²¹ (नवदà¥à¤ƒà¤–) refers to “recent sufferingâ€�, according to MahÄprajñÄpÄramitÄÅ›Ästra (chapter 31).—Accordingly, “[...] Recent suffering (²Ô²¹±¹²¹»å³Üḥk³ó²¹) is ‘happinessâ€� (sukha) [in contrast] to the old suffering (±èÅ«°ù±¹²¹»å³Üḥk³ó²¹) which is ‘sufferingâ€�. Thus, when one sits down one feels happiness, but when this position persists, it gives rise to suffering. At the beginning, walking, standing and lying down are happiness, but in the end they too are suffering. Whether one is bending or one is stretching, whether one is bowing the head or raising it, whether one looks straight ahead or to the side, whether one is breathing out or breathing in, suffering always follows the body. From conception and birth to death, there is not a single moment of happinessâ€�.
