There are three types of pain in this world intra-organic (adhyatmika) external influence (adhibhautika) and Super Natural Agency. And intra-organic also two types of physical and mental. Pain is eternal. Thus the impossibility of removal of pain is of two kinds: From eternality of pain and from the ignorance of the means of removing it.
