My strongest fear is bodily pain.In the past i always thought about physical pain , horrible deaths and was very sensitive to pain.For some years i dont fear and feel much pain.Actually my pain treshhold became high.I think this is because i have a better mood and a peaciful life.But i am afraid to be like before.
Lately i am reading on buddhism and hindusim with the purpose of actively practicing one of these.I know purpose of these religions is to end suffering and reach nirvana but this may take a long time.So i am looking for a quicker way to be resistant to physical pain and never be like before.
There was a buddhist monk who self immolated himself and stayed in a meditative position while he was burning.I think if someone can endure such a pain he/she can endure every kind of physical pain.So my question is is there any kind of meditation , teaching etc specializing on decreasing bodily pain in dharmic religions?
