Which Buddhism are you referring to? The "new age" Buddhism is all we hear about in the West, or the Yin/Yang Buddism. Those are very far from the real belief system. I would be interested in reading more about that particular translation, so if you have a link with more info on this whole "pain to reach enlightenment" please post.
