Not as Seen on TV

Is there some plan for evolution that does not lead us towards failure and to a bitter sensation? Is there any gain from all of these disasters and sufferings?

In one of our lives, we must attain the completion of our souls. If we do not achieve this, through the Upper Light, our torments will gradually increase until they finally make us realize the reason for our pain. It is our souls’ need to reclaim the Light that filled it before it came down to our world. The principal law of that system is “altruism.” It acts whether we are aware of it or not, and we must follow it whether we like it or not. Disobeying that law produces disasters and tragedies, both individual and collective.
