A visitor asked, “Under what circumstances do people feel lost in life?”
The Master answered:
People tend to feel lost in life when they have a wealthy and peaceful life. We are most likely safe when we drive carefully on a winding mountainous road; it is when we drive on a flat wide road that accident tends to happen. When life is difficult and vulnerable, one knows their place and where to draw a line. On the contrary, people who live a luxurious life often forget who they are and indulge in material possessions and in pursuit of pleasure.
