why suffering is blessing

[Guest guest]

Dear all,

If u are good and feel that you are suffering dont worry , below are

answers to the questions as to why suffering is in a way good,

believe me these were the questions answered by realised soul.

 

Become wise,rejoice in pain,your end is approaching...

 

1)If God is just and merciful, why should there be so much misery in

this world?

Sometimes we see virtuous men suffer and hypocrites enjoy. What is

the logic in this?

Misery is the eye-opener in this world. Had it not been for the

presence of pain and

misery, no one would attempt for salvation. Misery is a blessing in

disguise.

Virtuous men treat suffering as a blessing as it develops the power

of endurance and

mercy, and makes them remember God always. They welcome suffering.

They do not want

worldly pleasure and prosperity. They have a changed vision. They

always keep a balanced

mind in pleasure and pain. You cannot understand their mental state.

They rejoice in suffering.

Your mind is still worldly. You cannot understand these things.

 

2) We see a very good man suffering too much. Why?

 

 

The answer may be:

"Because of his previous Karma in his previous Janma". This

we can

trace back to the day

of creation.

The law of Karma is inexorable. Every one reaps the fruits of his

previous births. A

good man only will suffer a lot, because he is hurrying up in the

spiritual march. Many of his

evil Karmas have to be worked out and purged out quickly to hasten

his salvation in this very

birth. But, God gives him extraordinary power of endurance through

His grace. An aspirant or a

 

good man gets many difficulties and sufferings. But he rejoices even

in sufferings and

destitution on account of the descent of the Lord's grace. He

voluntarily welcomes these

sufferings. The only best thing in this world is pain or suffering,

because

 

 

3)How is it that we see many wicked persons flourishing in this world

while the

good souls suffer? Why is God merciful to some and heartless to some

else?

 

 

This is an age-old question, as old as the world itself. The great

Bhishma shed tears when

he was on his death-bed. When questioned why he cried, he replied

that the Pandavas were great

devotees of the Lord and always abided by the laws of Dharma. Above

all, the Lord was

constantly with them in the form of Krishna. And yet they underwent

so much of suffering.

Some wicked persons do flourish in this world of hypocrisy, but it

does not mean that

they are free from suffering. The really good souls do not suffer as

much as the `flourishing'

wicked ones, for peace is in the hearts of the former. To be able to

abide by the ideals they hold

sacred is by itself a great cause of happiness. The welfare and the

misery of people can be

explained only in terms of the law of Karma.
