@Mark;
Just so. Imo grief is an utterly selfish emotion based, one's feeling of loss of a person, thing or even idea to which one was attached.
Imo attachment is indeed a major cause of suffering. I can see how MY suffering can be the result of the attachment of others. (EG someone being attached to the belief that I'm an arsehole and deciding to hit me with a blunt instrument). But I don't see how my physical suffering is necessarily caused by my attachment. (I reject karma)
