What is sadness, what is depression, in Dhamma terms? Why do you think they are treated as unavoidable diseases almost? Once established as a norm in our mind, do you think we can cure them with Vipassana practice? Thank you.

Is sadness or grief a type of self-pity? Would you advise to deal with each one in a different way? Can it be helpful to understand more about the causes for sadness and how to prevent going into self-pity at the same time?
