The 5 enemies of life raised as unknown by Sri J is literally from a muslim scholar by name RUMI. *Kleshas* (Sanskrit <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanskrit_language>: क्लेश, , in Buddhism <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhism>, are mental states that cloud the mind and manifest in unwholesome actions. *Kleshas* include states of mind such as anxiety, fear, anger, jealousy, desire, depression, etc. Contemporary translators use a variety of English words to translate the term *kleshas*, such as: afflictions, defilements, destructive emotions, disturbing emotions, negative emotions, mind poisons, and neuroses. In the contemporary Mahayana and Theravada Buddhist traditions, the three kleshas of ignorance, attachment, and aversion are identified as the root or source of all other kleshas. These are referred to as the *three poisons <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_poisons_(Buddhism)>* in the Mahayana tradition, or as the three *unwholesome roots* in the Theravada tradition. While the early Buddhist texts of the Pali canon do not specifically enumerate the three root kleshas, over time the *three poisons* (and the kleshas generally) came to be seen as the very roots of samsaric existence <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sa%E1%B9%83s%C4%81ra_(Buddhism)>. குறள் 35 <https://www.ytamizh.com/thirukural/kural-35/>:
