+    Whatever obstacles we experience, if we can take them the right way, they
+won’t obstruct our spiritual path.  Rather, they will become a tool to
+stimulate our advancement toward our destination: unconditional love and
+enlightenment.
+    So try to feel joy when facing difficulties, for they provide the chance
+to purify unvirtuous past deeds, the cause of ills, and infuse us with the
+inspiration to generate yet greater virtuous deeds, the cause of healing and
+enlightenment.
