“When We Fail”

On the average we don’t acknowledge our greatness and we constantly worry about what happen yesterday and what might happen tomorrow. But we are made of nothing less than that which is omnipotent and omnipresent… and failure does not exist in the eyes of the Great One.

We have great strength and can be totally self-reliant with the help of the power that resides within. Think back on your mother and father, they went through lots of hard times and came out the other side stronger. Think back to your grandmother and grandfather more than likely they came to this land from far away. And they worked hard and endured great hardships and overcame those hardships and in the end thrived. But all of them had one thing they believe in— “God”. And they believed in the God that lived in their heart, that knowing kept them moving forward one step at a time. Oh once in a great while they did worry, but they were too busy to worry about much of anything. So they kept moving forward and doing what they knew they had to do.

When we have success we have gratitude and we can see our greatness. Plus every failure is also greatness because all things are to be… as they are to be. We are to be thankful for our failures as much as we are for success. Because in the great understanding of the universe everything happens for a reason. Perhaps our failure will allow someone in need to be successful and thus save their family from suffering. So it is— that all failures are to be praised and loved as much as success. In this way both success and failure bolsters our sense of well being, our love of God, and the love of the one we see in the mirror. But for some reason we have forgotten this and dwell on failures as something terrible.

It’s up to us to see the good in all things, even things which seemingly don’t workout. Then when we look in the mirror we shall see a person doing God’s work.

Many Blessings to Everyone!

To answer your question, let’s study the following words of Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan, an Enlightened being, very carefully. He says: “This puzzle has come about on its own, governed by the laws of science. I am telling you that this world is run only by Scientific Circumstantial Evidences. In Gujarati, I call it 'Vyavasthit Shakti'... It is all run by scientific circumstantial evidences. The whole world is run by this energy. These words are not easy to understand, unless
