(a) Negative commonality: Despite the apparent differences between the core parts of the Encyclopedia, especially in the case of their more obvious entries, it is interesting to note the commonalities in the case of certain other entries. Some exhibit a considerable overlap between the three parts. (…) the most fundamental entry common to the core parts is that of pain (or suffering) , which again is a principal concern of the major spiritual traditions.
