Learn by mistaking

You learn more by mistaking. Pain and suffering are the best teachers for the common people at least that you adhered to a superior wisdom based on the realization of God. Follow the teaching of a true Guru is the best way to lessen these suffering. When you taste something sweet but you know that is harmful for you, you fail and you bear the consequences, this is the law of God. All things that promise you easy joy at the beginning, leave you unhappiness and dryness in your heart at the end.
The important thing is to rise up when you fall, again and again!
