How to overcome troubles ?

It is impossible to find a person on the globe either alive or dead who didn’t taste some sort of trouble in life. We are living in the dualistic world – all things in this world have two dimensions for example; night and day, heat and cold, wisdom and ignorance, light and darkness; similarly – joy and sorrow are the twin brothers present in the world. The moment you experience joy – it implies that you would have to experience sorrow too because, these come together and no one can separate one from the other. Is it possible to separate the valley from the mountain? Is it possible to separate the wave crest from the wave trough? Nay - it is quite impossible.

The moment you choose ‘day’ – you are choosing both ‘light and darkness’ together but, it is impossible to have only one thing in life - this is the in-built principle of this world.

Another striking feature of the world is that, the deeper you experience one thing the other things too you have to experience to the same level. This is explained by the ‘sea-saw’ principle. In the ‘sea-saw’ – the lower one side goes down to the same extent the other side goes up and it can’t be the other way. More you feel the ‘joy’ – the more you will have to feel the ‘sorrow’ too, to the same intensity level. This is another in-built principle of this world.

The feeling of joy or sorrow depends on how ‘sensitive’ you are! The more sensitive you are – you will feel more joy from the world and consequently you will have to feel more ‘sorrow’ too, to the same depth of intensity. This is another reason people afraid to become more and more ‘sensitive’ and they don’t want to get rid of their ‘insensitivity’ or ‘rashness’. People stick to ‘rashness’ because they know deep down in the sub-conscious that they would have to suffer a lot if they turn ‘sensitive’.

Spiritual practices are the best means to make a person ‘sensitive’. Majority of the people deny it because in their sub- conscious they knew it well – if they turn sensitive they are bound to suffer more in the world.

That is why philosophers deny both – they deny all the dualities and teach us to go beyond everything. They don’t choose ‘joy’ of this world so, naturally they don’t have or untouched by the ‘sorrow’ of this world too. They go beyond every duality. This is the ONLY method REALLY possible to overcome sorrow and suffering to the core. The enlightened mystics would accept whatever comes into their life without any choice – so, they don’t feel ‘joy’ and they don’t feel ‘sorrow’ too. They are beyond all the dualities. This is what ‘absolute’ maturity is – and knowingly or unknowingly all the creatures are trying to attain this ‘supreme state’ but, this will not happen all of a sudden. The ‘soul’ has to take many births before it could attain this ‘state ultimate’. This is the only authentic way possible in order to overcome all the miseries, ignorance, sorrows and grieves in the world. But, it is not so easy that too for the modern worldly man. In order to attain that state – it requires rigorous spiritual practices and a strong morale.

The other two wise methods to overcome troubles, sorrows and sufferings are somewhat not so difficult and any common man could practice them without much difficulty. These two methods are: ‘deep understanding of life’ and ‘think of heaven while in hell’.

These two methods have been dealt in detail in the previous article and you could get them at the following like, both methods have been given in the same article;

Think of heaven while in hell !
