The Bhagawan Uvacha series brings to devotees the world over, a compilation of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba's teachings in the form of quotations, skilfully compiled and woven together by Shri. N. S. Venkatesh, the compiler. In this book in the series, Suffering, Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba speaks about why living beings suffer and how they may come to terms with it, and how suffering is to be utilised as a catalyst.Shri. Venkatesh says, "Why me?" If you have ever asked yourself this question before, take heart. You are not alone. Suffering is viewed as an unfair, merciless tormentor. It stretches a man's tolerance to the hilt, crushing and crippling him in the process. But, listen to the Avatar as He speaks of suffering, of its cause, and how it can serve as a catalyst to spiritual growth and a key to enlightenment. Listen to Him carefully and watch your preconceived notions of suffering melt away. Just flip open any page and listen.
