Does Physical Pain Diminish as Mental Activity Does?

A man asks for clarity on beingness, and further about dealing with pain, which he finally stopped fighting with. Does beingness care that we're in pain? He says he accepted the pain, and when he leans into being the pain goes with him. He asks if the physical sensation reduces as the mind activity reduces. Rupert responds not necessarily. If resistance is adding to that pain, then that will diminish, but there may be other reasons the body is in pain. Being doesn't care, but it is legitimate for the mind to care about the pain.
