Gaining Power Through Self-Development

4 min readMay 20, 2025

Every human being has the right to be happy and free from suffering. Happiness is meant to be our natural state — just like how seasons change or rivers flow. Suffering, on the other hand, is not natural. It only happens because we don’t fully understand life or how it works. True happiness comes from wisdom. And if we could gain complete wisdom, knowing the purpose of life and how we are all connected, we could escape pain and live in peace. That kind of wisdom leads to lasting joy.

So why do we suffer?

We suffer because we are growing and evolving, but we don’t have the spiritual understanding we need to guide us. We walk blindly into problems, just like someone walking in a dark room full of furniture — they’re bound to bump into things. If we had light, we could move around safely. In the same way, spiritual wisdom helps us avoid many of the painful experiences in life.

Think about it:

  • One day your family is happy, and the next, someone you love is gone. You’re left with pain.
  • Today, a friend smiles at you. Tomorrow, they betray you. And you don’t know why.
  • You might have been wealthy once, and now you’re struggling financially…
