The so-called stress of human beings is actually nothing more than our conscious mind constantly seeking five desires: wealth, sex, reputation, food, sleep and so on. And desire itself will never be satisfied. Therefore, as long as our consciousness and mind constantly interact with the realm of five desires, of course, there will be all kinds of dissatisfaction, that is, the pain that we can't get, and the pressure will follow.
