Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj today spoke on how faith in God helps us weather the storms of life, strong in the conviction that we are always being looked after. God is always with us—helping, guiding,  and protecting us at every moment of our existence. The most effective way to pass unaffected through the inevitable vicissitudes of life is by focusing our attention on God, he said.

We can do this through the process of meditation when we invert our attention within, and are able to tap into the perennial source of permanent peace, bliss, and joy that is God. Once we have a direct experience of God’s love in meditation, we are convinced of God’s presence in our lives. It is this personal experience that strengthens our faith in God, and helps us face the ups and downs of life.
