This afternoon, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj addressed a packed Main Hall at the Science of Spirituality International Meditation Center as he delivered the first Sunday spiritual discourse after returning from his tours. Commenting on the surprise snow showers that fell in the Chicagoland area this morning, he spoke of how we have the choice in life to derive happiness from situations that come our way, or to be miserable because of them. It is all a question of our understanding of life.
If our understanding is not right, we stand to be perturbed by everything that happens around us that does not meet our expectations. Developing right understanding is the key to leading life in a manner in which it should be led. When our understanding is right, then our thoughts and thinking patterns will be right. When our thoughts are right, then our words and our actions follow suit; they will be peaceful and calming, and will bring joy and happiness to us and all around us.
