Pain and life

. . . To be able to feel the pain of others is the real feeling of noble pain. One can't find any selfish motive or goal behind the feeling of pain of those who suffer so. This is so, because, it's that agony the experience of which lets one identify himself with it, rendering him in tune with the true nature of soul. There is a deep sense of joy at feeling the sadness of others; it's like a beautiful, long stretch of fountain on the bed of our living heart.

It is the same agony the divine messengers have experienced in the deepest of their heart in tune with the humanity. Words can't express this sorrow. It's the same pursuit that renders divinity upon humans. It is in the utmost sincerity of this sorrow lies the tranquil peace of sacrifice. One finds the touchstone of joy and happiness in this orchard of perennial agony. . . .

When, through our own agony and suffering, we can embrace the pain and agony of the world as ours, only then our soul soar to nobility - its frontiers are extended. We, then, come to know the truth, to experience the beauty: and that's why then we truly feel the joy in sacrifice; we can then cry for others and offer even our lives for the sake of all those who are in sadness, pain, agony, and suffering.
