So if you meditate daily, truly earnest in seeking God, don’t be afraid of suffering
It helps in many ways. It is your true friend
- It helps burn karma. Once that layer is burnt the veil that hides a god disappears
- It exposes your flaws. Your desires for the world is revealed. Your anger, frustration shows the mental demands ( rather than accepting what God wishes). It shows our insecurities. Fear. Our biases. Our love is not equal. Our ego gets bruised Things we need to correct
- It helps us understand the pain of others. Since we went through it. A wise person becomes more empathic
- It teaches others how to endure pain and suffering ( if you can do it successfully properly)
- Remember the karma must be endured. Now or later. So just get done with it – why postpone it and pay back with interest
St Francis said – poverty your my friend
So use adverse circumstances to your advantage. Learn not to be unhappy Learn to have faith. Slowly walk towards fearlessness. If you smile during adverse times your karma is rapidly burnt. But smile within. No one has to know your smile within
And above all meditate
See there is a secret place within where karma is stored. Just light a fire there. Watch the true holi.
In Uttara gita , Krishna Bhagwan talks about this secret place. Reaching there is not Easy But worth it !
