If we have implicit faith in the Lord’s words, we can still be happy even if we are suffering. Mukunda had such faith when he was told that he would only attain the Lord’s darsana after ten million births; he felt only ecstasy and did not feel resentment or even pain at hearing it would take him ten million births before again seeing the Lord. We must have faith like Mukunda’s. Then if we suffer by the Lord’s will, we will accept it as our means of repentance and will continue to worship the Lord, trusting that He will forgive us for our offenses.
