Everything Has A Purpose

(Below is a continuation of the post A Guru Is Definitely Needed)

Just come to the Ashram once and see for yourself how even dead people (here meaning those steeped in negativity and inertia) come alive with joy! Come and see how one can experience heaven right here. Here you will find that which you have been searching for your whole life so easily and comfortably, right in your very lap! So come and experience this magic at least once. Once you experience true knowledge you will realize how truly beautiful life is.

Do not blame the world or curse the people around you. They are all a part of God’s wonderful creation. Everything here has a purpose, and everything here is to make you stronger – be it friends or enemies. There are flower spreads, and there are thorns as well – both to make you blossom from deep within. Focus on yourself and your own experience; do not get caught in meaningless random talks of others. Then your experience will feel true and deep.
Open your eyes and see – there are only good people everywhere. Even the few wicked ones that you see around you are actually good-natured at heart. They are not really wicked, they are just unfortunate and their luck is not yet in their favour – which is why they resort to wrong deeds. If you see from my eyes, you will only see that this world is full of goodness, and everyone and everything in the world belongs to us.
