WAR AND SUFFERING

 
Someone mentioned suffering. Mani recalled Norina's horror at the suffering in the Second World War. When she spoke of it to Baba, He looked very much God, His eyes very powerful, and exhorted Norina: 'Do you think I would allow such a thing as war to happen if it wasn't absolutely necessary?'

On another occasion Baba said that the time to come would be a period of love, peace, brotherliness, harmony. Baba's face was so beautiful and eloquent as He said: 'There is no doubt about it, that is to come.' And that is the opposite of war.
