“The Master said “Many of the associates write to me about their troubles and want me to remove them. To them, as also to all others, I would say that the trouble reminds us of its silent stage. We get comfort in the state of discomfort. We remember it when it's opposite is there. In this way, we develop forbearance and a little bit of peace also.” Our sufferings are due to the binds that we have in the various planes of our existence. We have the divine realm of love and that is our plus point. We need to strengthen the same. We also have the human realm which comprises of jealousy, hatred, and host of other negative intentions; we have the realm of the animal, the hungry ghost realm and possibly a hell realm too! The full range of human experience is included in such realms.”

“Antardrishti: There is an internal way of looking at things. Sufferings not denied we make an effort to put pieces of suffering as if they were blocks in a puzzle and try to visualize the whole picture and also see what part we have played in precipitating this suffering. For my part, it is a question of directing the vision. If I always look at beings and things external, I seem to see a lot of suffering. On the other hand, if I turn my vision inwards, towards the Divine or the Master in the heart as a Justice personified, I behold nothing but peace. And when I have made a practice of this, I see happiness everywhere-not within alone but also without. The question of suffering does get suspended and slowly resolved in a natural way.”
