Only you should not allow your mind to waver due to doubt or disappointment. Leave all to Him and be at ease; it is the man with no faith that is tossed about on the sea, like a ship caught in a storm with neither rudder nor anchor. The Bhakta or devotee bears the ups and downs of life, keeping the balance of his mind even. (SSS Vol.2, p. 10)

Suffering entitles you more to the Grace of the Lord. When suffering comes in waves, one behind the other, be glad that the shore is near; bear them bravely. Do not, like cowards throw the blame on some outside power or develop dislike for the Lord. (LS, p. 18)

Bear with fortitude both loss and grief. Try and search for plans to achieve joy and gain. When you are invaded by anger, practice silence or remember the Name of the Lord. Do not remind yourself of things which will inflame the anger more; that will do incalculable harm. For faults and sins committed in ignorance, repent sincerely. Try not to repeat the faults and sins again. Pray to God to bless you with the strength and the courage needed to stick to the right path. From this moment, avoid all bad habits. Do not delay or postpone. They do not contribute to the slightest joy. (San Vah, p. 49)
