We often set certain goals in our minds, and believe that achieving them will bring peace in our life. However, upon achieving that goal, we immediately set another one, leading to an endless cycle of desires. We often feel misplaced, believing we should be somewhere else, misled by the illusion that the grass is always greener on the other side, while in reality, the grass is the same across all sides. No matter the extent of our achievements and possessions, we remain dissatisfied, always measuring our joy and sorrow against what others have.

A narrow-minded perspective focuses our attention solely on ourselves, magnifying our flaws and causing irritation over even the smallest missing elements in our lives. Conversely, adopting a broader perspective makes us benevolent, akin to the vastness of the formless. With this understanding, we realise that what everyone is blessed with is sufficient. Accepting that the Supreme Being orchestrates everything leaves no room for alternatives. A devotee always accepts that the Supreme Being is behind whatever situation in our lives, and therefore, it is inherently good.
