Suffering - method used as a last resort by Cosmic Intelligence to educate human beings

04/05/2004

We must not always consider suffering as a punishment. It is a warning, a lesson given to restrain human beings who are on the road to ruin. Yes, when they are stubborn and refuse to understand, suffering alone can instruct and save them. It is not desirable to reach this point, but what else can be done? When Cosmic Intelligence, which is wise and full of love, has tried everything, when it has tried wisdom and explanations by way of the initiates it has sent, when it has tried love and patience through the saints, prophets and martyrs, and there is still no change, its only resource is to send hardship. It then gives permission for tyrants, criminals and assassins to take power. Cosmic Intelligence never starts with suffering, but resorts to it only when it has tried everything else, in order to make human beings stop and think.
