When the masters return to earth, they often have to endure great suffering. Christ was crucified, Krishna went to war and more modern masters endure deep suffering of slander and gossip.
Do not lament at the behaviour of fellow humans toward these Masters. We should focus rather and learn from the response of the Masters in their time of great suffering and adversity.
There are many lessons to be learnd from the Passion, which took place today, over two thousand years ago.
On the path to Calvary, Jesus did not wipe his brow of the blood and sweat from his wounds. In all humility He allowed those who loved him to do so for Him. Despite being cripled by pain, He continued to carry His cross until He was physically no longer able to do so.
And Just before the hour of his death He cried out "Father forgive them for they know not what they do"
Never once did He let the cup of suffering pass Him by. He Accepted: and in so doing, changed the life of the world forever
