Reason for adversity and problems in our life

 

 

Adversity makes us dynamic. Adversity forces our eyes wide apart.

Adversity teaches us the meaning of patience. Adversity endows us

with faith in ourselves. Adversity leads us inward to correct and

perfect our march to life. Prosperity leads us onward to illumine

and immortalize our human birth.

 

In prosperity, our inner strength remains static. In adversity, our

inner strength becomes dynamic. None can deny the fact that every

step of progress which the world has made has come from both the

smiles of prosperity and the tears of adversity.

 

One merit of adversity none can deny: it helps us to be stronger

within. The stronger we are within, the brighter we are without.

 

There is somebody who knows what is best for us, and that is the

Supreme. The Supreme is not a mental hallucination. We will be able

to see Him, we will be able to hear Him, we will be able to dine

with Him. He is not only our Father, but also our eternal Comrade.

We have to give Him responsibility for ourselves.

 

His Eyes have better vision than ours. His Ears hear more quickly

than our human ears. We talk to human beings who have no time to

hear us; they have so many things to do in the outer world. But we

very often forget that there is somebody else who is eager to

listen. The Supreme is always eager to hear from us, but we do not

speak to Him.

 

If we know how to look at a problem, half the strength of the

problem goes away. But usually we try to avoid the problem; we try

to run away from it. To have a problem is not a crime, so why should

we be afraid to face it? Our difficulty is that when something

unfortunate happens in our life, we immediately feel that we are at

fault, that we have done something wrong. We must know that there

are also wrong forces, undivine forces, hostile forces around us.

 

By blaming ourselves and then trying to hide, we do not solve the

problem. We have to face the problem and see whether we really are

to blame. In order to solve the problem of ourselves, we have to

practice the spiritual life and develop inner strength, aspiration

and inner detachment. Slowly, gradually, we will become inwardly

strong, and then we will be able to solve the problems caused by our

own inner weaknesses.

 

As soon as we have conquered a difficulty, we will find that it

repeats itself on a higher and subtler level. It is the same

essential weakness in ourselves which we are made to face in a more

refined form.

One. Both are one and one cannot live without the other " .
