When we subdue our selfish desires, we wake up to a higher purpose that God has in store for us and realise that the universe is not hostile to life. Rather, it is generous and eager to bestow infinite blessings and opportunities for the soul to evolve and manifest its divine destiny.

Make God as the Driver of your life. He is the Master of infinite universes and our loving guardian. If we put our complete faith in Him, He will do everything to protect us no matter how pitiable our situation may be. And even the biggest reversal is part of His great plan for us. Such absolute faith in God lifts us from despondency.

Accept adversities as an inevitable part of life. The Universe is full of dualities - day and night, hot and cold, rain and drought. The same rose bush has a beautiful flower and also an ugly thorn. Life too brings its share of opposites - happiness and distress, victory and defeat, fame and notoriety.

The nature of the world is that there is an illusion of happiness. Running after it is like running after a mirage.

We loved the world for our sake; we must now learn to love Radha Krishna for Their sake. This is selfless love.

Have faith that the Universe is benevolent, and all reversals have silver linings; you just have to look hard enough to find them. Doing so open up the doorway to discovering goodness and joy in every situation.
