Buddhists think that being sick is miserable. If you are ill with the flu or with sorrow or hatred, it's a result of your misunderstanding about the true nature of reality. Some Buddhists can provide you with intricate chains of causation which link one of your actions or illusions to the manifestation of illness. Other Buddhists would say that it doesn't matter what sort of causes and conditions led to your illness; it's not like you killed a gnat in your last life and this is why you now have a runny nose. The cure for all illness, physical, emotional and spiritual is always cultivating an understanding of the true nature of reality and absolute loving kindness for all sentient beings. Especially those with runny noses!

What are the views of the illness in the Buddhist Tibet culture and their reaction to severe illness?

If a person is severely ill it is seen as they are impure or "poisoned" this does not mean that they will not be cared for but generally it is taboo to enter a temple or shrine if you are injured or sick since you are bringing impurity into their sacred place. Severe illness will be typically treated by a local physician and Buddhist priest who will cleanse the sufferer of the impure spiritual affliction
