pain is pious

long ago, when i was in college, an American lady came to our class. i remember asking her - why do Christians wear cross? because it was on the cross, jesus was ill treated, his hands and nails were nailed. He bleeded and died on this very cross. so when u wear a cross, doesnt it rather bring the sadistic nature of mankind. she said - the question was a difficult one to answer and probably what i said was true, including, possibly, if jesus was electrocted, probably, she said all christians, would be wearing an electric chair.
of course she took time, to explain the powerful meaning of the cross, and what it represents to the fellow believers.
but the idea remained in my head that people celebrate pain.
in hinduism also, we celebrate ravana's vadha, how bhima tears a demon into two half, how narshima tears open the demon with his hands, and so on. each death and gory event celebrated with fanfare.
it always made me think is it in human nature to celebrate pain. or is it pain tht beautiful. finally i realised, that pain is no beautiful, but it is pious.
when our hand bleeds, it bleeds because it removes, all the impurity from the body, making blood pure again.
so does the pain associated with pregnancy....it is celebrated.
why go so mch far to explain this. have u ever seen a mosquito bite u. and did u ever let it bite u, seeing how it sucks r blood. the pain associated is absoltely pios, because, u r donating ur blood for its offsprin....more arguements continues
