Question: In our ten, some friends believe that we can advance only through suffering and pain, but there are also other opinions. Which is more correct?

Answer: Do not think that progress should be in suffering and pain. If you do, you say that the Creator has created this way for us. But this is not so. He wants us to advance in joy.

Question: But it does not always work out that way. What is the mistake and what should I pay attention to?

Answer: The mistake is that you do not attach sufficient importance to coming closer to the Creator.

Therefore, while doing spiritual work you are in a bad mood, regretful, and so on.

Question: Are these feelings also given by the Creator?

Answer: No, do not confuse yourself. Do not think about whether it is given by Him or not. The main thing is what you feel.
