Dislikes

We feel repulsed by the things that lead to unpleasant or painful experiences. We do not want to relive those experiences.

Our tendency to avoid unpleasant experiences leads to aversion to those things that generate them. Mere dislikes thus become distastes, aversions, detestations, disgusts, repulsions and hatreds. The stronger the feeling of finitude, the stronger the sense of aversions and hatreds born of dislikes.

Our inability to avoid our dislikes results in unhappiness, anger and depression.

It may be noticed that the feeling of finitude defines our sense of helplessness. The stronger the feeling of finitude, the stronger the sense of aversions and hatreds born of our dislikes.
