Is Buddhism an pessimistic art of self-hypnotism to suggest that life all about suffering?
When you are in pain/stress,
hypnotism can suggest that your life is wonderful to give hope for the
future. It is an optimistic fake suggestion.
In Buddhism, attachments to worldly impermanence is proved as Dukkha (suffering).
Buddhism is focused at getting super-mundane freedom (nibbana) from worldly sufferings.
A commoner may think that Buddhism forces to make false self-suggestions (self-hypnotism) to view life pessimistically as misery, where in contrast, Biblical religions justify the joy of life.
Even may further think that Nibbana, the goal of Buddhism is based on a false alarm of suffering.
Irrespective of such criticism, one may be surprised to find, many people around the world are interested in learning the core of Buddhism (not religious traditions), straight from Tipitaka.
1. Is Buddhism pessimistic?
2. Is Buddhism an art of self-hypnotism?
3. Does Buddhism falsely suggest that life all about suffering as a false alarm to freedom?

@Fake Genius,
Changes in life, aging, death and tide breaking sand castles are common knowledge.
Anyone can experience all this in a sad mood or with joy.
Can you prove Buddhism is not a pessimistic art of self-hypnotism to suggest that life all about suffering?
