Any illness or any happening in our lives that makes us more conscious of Divinity is good. Because you are not going to Divinity, but Divinity is coming to you. How much more blessed can you be?

Do you see how simple it is?

How to handle the Ego?
It is an illusion to regard ourselves as separate from Divinity. Through meditation, through the things that happen within yourself, you start to know a power greater than the gross little ego. For the ego is only an idea. One has to go beyond that idea.
