Guest guest Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 "God didn`t create this world as a prison for us to suffer." God/dess creates the world. We misinterpret his/her creation and we suffer. We only suffer because we choose to suffer. Choose something else. Can't make that choice? Do some sadhana so that you have wider, more profound understanding and then you will make the choices that lead to eternal bliss and away from the cycle of short periods of happiness punctuating long periods of unhappiness and dissatisfaction. Preparation and an appropriate attitude brings success.
