1. Avidyā (ignorance) comes from forgetting the Supreme Lord. 2. Asmitā (false ego) comes from directing one's thoughts away from the Supreme Lord. 3. Abhiniveśa (being absorbed in material things) comes from rapt meditation on things other than the Supreme Lord. 4. Durvāra rāga (irresistable attachment) comes from blind love for things other than the Supreme Lord. 5. dveṣa (aversion) comes from the struggle to purify the soul. These five sufferings always torment me.
