AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I feel I am the most unlucky person in the world and only my life is so problematic. Everyone around me is happy and things go well for them, but why for me is there so much difficulty? ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿฆ‹๐ŸŒผ

Life poses problems for everyone; only the nature of the problem and its degree differs. But if we look deeply, we shall discover that these problems are actually challenges through which our consciousness grows. What we need to understand is that the goal of life is not happiness and personal comfort but growth and progress. Besides, we cannot say who is really happy by looking outwardly. There are people who seem to be busy going around spending lots of money on parties and holidays are often feeling quite lonely and hollow inside.ย  In any case, difficulties indicate that there are several possibilities in us and if we take the difficulty as an opportunity, then it can help us tremendously in our progress, which is the real purpose of our life.

Affectionately,

Alok da.
