Divine Will

Thank you, Alok da, for answering my question from yesterday on a passage of the Synthesis of Yoga. However, I would like to clarify one specific point based on the understanding I shared earlier. Let me take a hypothetical example. Suppose, for a particular individual, the Divine Intention/Will is that he should go through a life of considerable struggle. ❤️‍🔥😊🙏🏻🌼[…]

How does one make that choice at each moment or at least at every turn?🤔💭💡

It is best not to think too much about oneself in a self-critical judgmental tone. Quietly one should keep progressing upon the path offering our
