You are worried about your money or what would happen to your son’s admission or if the project would be submitted on time or what would I eat in dinner. Your mind is occupied with all such thoughts mostly and you are not worried about why are you born?
If you haven’t asked that, then don’t say that, we are stuck in this cycle of rebirth and that is why we are here. We are here for a purpose. Let’s first understand the theory of Karma, so that we can understand the cycle of rebirth.
Purpose is as inevitable as pain
Once I was sitting with a client who is suffering from lots of emotional pains in life and I asked him, what is your purpose. He said, Sheetal I do not want to be with you here because you want to treat me with simple questions. I need some complex solutions. Change your methods. So I told him, if you want to end the suffering, you need to have a purpose for that pain which left him mesmerized. Let’s take few examples…1. When you are in Gym, you exercise beyond your capacity and go through pain, but you smile for that pain as that is building your strength, so you have the purpose. Second is cosmetic surgery, do they suffer? No! Third..when people work hard in office, they have pain but they don’t suffer as they know it would pay back and the last one and the biggest one is when mother is giving birth to a child she goes through so much pain, but she does not suffer as she has a purpose for that pain.
Pain is inevitable but not the sufferings and when you have a purpose in life, every pain becomes a way of pleasure as you know it, why are you bearing it. So always find out, why you are here and why are you doing what you are doing, so that, you can know the purpose of your pain instead of asking, why am I living..is it worth living..you can add that meaning to your life…so always find your purpose to end the sufferings from pain.
