Quotes on Pain

Quotes on Pain                           by: Sri Chinmoy

“Adversity makes you dynamic. Adversity forces your eyes wide open. Adversity teaches you the meaning of patience. Adversity endows you with faith in yourself. Adversity opens the secret door through which you can see the ultimate future fulfilment of God’s Will.”

“There is a general notion that if we go through suffering, tribulations and physical pain then our system will be purified. This idea is not founded upon reality.”

“To think that pain is a well-deserved punishment is wrong. To think that pain is an unavoidable heritage of karma is worse. To think that pain can never be surmounted is worst of all. Pain is a momentary experience of one’s limited self before it enters into the sea of Bliss.”
