WORLD ISN’T TURNING YOUR WAY ?

“I know there are some of you who believe, ‘Well I must have committed some great sins in the past, perhaps in previous lives, because I’m sure suffering now.’ Are you really suffering? Is there such a thing? Think about that. The only reason you think you are suffering is because the world is not turning the way that you want it to. Isn’t that true?

You think you should be this instead of that, you should live here instead of there, you should have this instead of that, and that’s what causes you to suffer. But when you become one-pointed, and focus your attention on your Self—with a capital S—it is virtually impossible to suffer because suffering doesn’t exist.”

~ Robert Adams (20th century American Advaita mystic)
