Suffering is a common feature in mankind; it is a law governing this world. One way or the other, it happens in the life of a being. It is a mandatory step that does not depend on us; we do not lay down the rules. We, also, have been subjected to them; it is not correct to say that we keep you in this state of suffering.

"We ask you to accept what is inevitable, to transcend your sufferings and to be in a state of surrender in the face of tests which you have to undergo. On no account do we suggest you to ask for them or to hope to go through sufferings for your evolution. Our teachings do not provide for anything of the sort.

"None of you can change your destiny to your liking. What is good for you is not necessarily pleasant to go through, but that belongs to the rules concerning man's evolution; thus it has been since the mists of time.

"Your stay on the Earth is subjected to this system; we cannot change anything about it. We help you in our own way. While advancing, you free yourselves from your chains, which will enable you to escape the cycle of reincarnations.

"Do not forget that we only want your good."

--The Uplift

Transcend the miasmas of material life. This suggestion helps you to forget your worries, and to go beyond – towards this Eden where everything is forgotten. There, in that Eden, the union of our hearts is realised. Our hearts are watching over this great and beautiful Mission whose action will spread across the world as planned. Within you is that blessed place where every day our attention instils these words. They are expected by many of our brothers and sisters, some of whom are beginning to realise the benefit of reading them. “Nothing is done in vain; humans are easily confused by what they do not know. Future times will be more in tune with the communication of the spirit. Such communication has been used since time immemorial, especially among certain peoples who are much more advanced than Westerners tend to believe. One thing at a time – the world is constantly changing. Imperceptibly, changes are taking place, and one day these will generate refined beings more receptive and more capable of grasping the inconceivable than human beings of today. “In its own manner, the way of Sahaj Marg is preparing a future that will be more conducive to real spiritual progress. Humanity is advancing step by step at its own pace, which is not the general pace. The mysteries of life are unfathomable. Our abhyasis must become more and more confident. In this world where illusion prevails, the path we offer them is more effective than it may seem. Blessings to all.”
