LESSONS OF THE FUTILITY OF THE PASSING

Meher Baba

 
People should look upon physical and mental suffering as gifts from God. They bring their own lessons of the futility of the passing, and of the intrinsic worth of the eternal. Accepted with grace and understood in their very root cause, they chasten the soul and introduce it to the abiding happiness of truth.
