THE STRUGGLE OF LIFE

Life is a constant struggle. In this fight, only those who have the courage to turn their desires into real accomplishments can succeed.

A person may seem limited on the surface, but inside, he harbours unlimited desires. His abilities and courage are without limits. That’s why, when he faces life’s challenges, the vastness of the world starts to feel narrow to him. Every success begins to seem incomplete. Every achievement makes him feel he hasn’t reached everything he aimed for.

In such a situation, what truly forms the foundation of a successful life? If we define a successful life as one where a person gets everything they desire completely, experience shows us that this kind of fulfillment is impossible in this world. If success means achieving all that one wants, ultimately, only despair will result. For someone with this mindset, there are only two possible outcomes in life— despair or suicide.

The truth is that the secret to a successful life in this world is one thing: instead of focusing on the destination, you should make the quest itself your goal. The desires a person feels inside are, in reality, a yearning for the truth.

In this world, only the person succeeds who makes the recognition of truth his goal and discovers the secret of living in alignment with higher realities. In contrast, those who make material glitter their ultimate aim can never find true contentment.

The principle of this world is straightforward—the bigger the goal, the greater the progress.
