Rajmani Tigunai says:
There is a turning point in every individual’s life, and during those moments, each of us is accompanied by divine protection and guidance. Every event, regardless of how bitter and unpleasant it may seem, is a direct expression of divine will and contains the seeds of higher good.
In every biography worthy of being told, we can identify such moments. And often, when they occur, their decisive impact is not immediately apparent—we only realize it once life has run its course. Yet they do occur, and they do have an impact. For those who are alive, it can be extremely difficult to view them with the optimism and confidence of the pandit, because, although the resulting transformation becomes apparent over time, sometimes there are no clues that it is of the utmost importance and always for the better. Ah! Without religion, misery invites us to hell! And without a modicum of confidence, a modicum of a positive outlook on life, it is very easy to give up.
