| Pain |
|
Master [Babuji]: "It is not necessary [to have pain to get closer to
God]. My Master [Lalaji] used to suffer from great pain. He had abscess
of the liver and used to suffer very much. But when he was in very
great pain he used to sing! I asked him why. He told me that when a
person is in great pain, he has to groan or make some such noise, and so
why not sing and make noise? My Master [Rev. Lalaji] once told me that
he could easily have removed this trouble in one minute. But he did not
do so, because he felt the pain was given by God, and who knows why God
has given it! He felt there must be some reason for it! So that was my
Master's [Rev. Lalaji] submission to Divine Will!"

Very simple narration ... but contains great meanings.
