What is a transcendent state in which there is neither suffering desire nor sense of self (being free)?
A transcendent state characterized by the absence of suffering, desire, and a sense of self is often described in spiritual or philosophical contexts as enlightenment or nirvana. In this state, individuals experience profound peace and liberation from the attachments and cravings that typically bind them to the cycle of suffering. It represents a deep realization of interconnectedness and the impermanence of the self, leading to a profound sense of freedom and inner tranquility. This state is often sought in various spiritual traditions as the ultimate goal of human existence.

For Buddhists money is a tool, as it is in most contemplative spiritual traditions. Money is neither good nor bad, but it has the capacity to generate suffering. Greed is suffering and so is not being able to buy food or shelter.

An Islamic response to evil and suffering?
Muslims believe that God is TRANSCENDENT (beyond human understanding) but whatever he does he has a reason for it which only He knows. Not all Evil and Suffering is caused by Him, this world was created in such a way that natural disasters do occur, but that doesn't necessarily mean that He is punishing those affected by the disaster. Muslims also believe that this life is a test and there will be difficulties along this journey but the Ultimate Goal (Heaven) is most definitely worth it and any undeserved suffering will be put right (basically, you will be rewarded for being patient and having faith in Him) Please feel free to correct me if i am wrong. one reason Muslims would respond is that god sends evil and suffering
