The problems in the world were made so that you donโt get stuck and attached to this world. You get stuck with this world even though there are so many problems. Imagine if there are no problems, then you will never want to leave this material world!
Sri Sri Ravi ShankarAccept people and situations as they are in life and then take action. The moment you do this, you'll see you are out of the confusion about anything in life.
Sri Sri Ravi ShankarIf you see long term benefit in doing something, but short term pain then you should do it.
Sri Sri Ravi ShankarLife is more than matter. If it were just matter, there would be no need for comfort. Matter does not feel comfort or discomfort, beauty or ugliness, love or compassion, joy or sorrow. Will a chair ever feel sorry or happy? No, matter does not have these finer values. They belong to the realm of the spirit. But life is also more than spirit. If it were just spirit, there would be no need for water, food, or rest. Human life is a combination of both matter and spirit.
