A time honored proverb says
"Na Sukhaath Labhyathe Sukham" - Real and lasting happiness cannot be
won through physical pleasures. Lasting happiness can come only by the
discipline of the mind and faith in the Lord which cannot be diminished by good
or bad fortune.
Man has to use the power of
discrimination given to him to fight the evil forces within him and to foster
the Divine elements in him by his own effort, by listening to the voice of his
conscience. Man has to use the freedom to discriminate between right and wrong,
good and evil. - Baba

Sorrows
and disasters are the clouds that flit across the sky; they cannot injure the
blue depths of space of faith. Look upon joy and sorrow as teachers of
hardihood and balance. Grief is a friendly reminder, a good taskmaster, even a
better teacher than joy. Do not flinch in the face of grief. Welcome the test
because thereafter you are awarded the certificate.
