Chooses lesser evil (1) Bry	Perseverance + Fear suffering: How can a person who has such a strong fear of suffering will persevere? Here Dr. Sehgal gave us rubric "Chooses the lesser evil". A person is having pains and body ache which is harming him, he wants to be quiet and rest without being disturbed Del, injured is being Quiet wants to be Rest desire for Disturbed, averse to being But business is very important for him, as it brings profit (money), so if he rests and doesn't go to his work or attend his business he will loose money or profit which will cause more troubles mounting to much more sufferings Fear of poverty Fear of suffering If he lies down in bed, he becomes poor which is more than the only physical suffering which he will get if he goes to his job or business. So he prefers going to work, doing business in spite of feeling pain and suffering. Here we can see how he Chooses the lesser evil. Keeps making efforts in spite of counter influences opposition (Perseverance). The pains, suffering, disease is coming as an obstacle but he bear it and goes to work to earn money. Without work and money he will invite poverty which will cause more miseries. That is why he prefers suffering than poverty so between the two evils suffering and poverty he chooses suffering.
