The Life of Lord Mahavira: The Afflictions and Rejection of the Divine Help, Part 2 of 4, June 30, 2019

So, we will continue now. So, this cowherd was beating Him [Lord Mahavira] relentlessly, but the Master still continued to meditate. Can you do that? Only now, I read them for you, so that you can see some examples of past Saints. At this time, He [Lord Mahavira] wasn't a Saint yet, maybe not yet, not complete yet, but He already practiced selflessness, sacrifice, and endurance. Because I was like you, searching for enlightenment and I thought I could find it in books, in holy scriptures and sutras, or stories of Saints and Sages since time began. But I could not find it. These stories alone will not bring you enlightenment or promise you any liberation. But as already enlightened practitioners like you are, it will serve as a reminder. So that you're more encouraged, more determined to go on your spiritual path unflinchingly. I’m doing a lot more retreat nowadays whenever I can. My job is not only to teach you or entertain you, but my job is inside, for other beings. Not just this planet, other planets as well. You help me by meditating and wishing me success in my inner journey and that's the best you can do.
