Light has always existed, exists and will exist in the world and the absence of light - darkness; good and bad. As an oriental sign - yin-yang, darkness and light are in harmony with each other, maintaining balance on Earth. Today we will try to understand why darkness does not exist without light, and why bad will always come with good?
The light and dark side of life
Why is it impossible to live, experiencing one hundred percent happiness, without a drop of trouble? Alas, the world is arranged so that sooner or later we become disappointed in it and begin to search for the true meaning of life, our destiny. All that is in our power is to respond correctly to situations that occur in our lives. It is said that a sober-minded intelligent person is not too happy when happiness comes, and not too sad when trouble comes. It helps to clearly see the goal in life.
There is also a quote about light and darkness in which life is compared to a chessboard:
Life is not a series of black and white stripes. Life is a chessboard where everything depends on your move.
The quote is controversial (since most of the pieces still go every move either to a black cell or to a white one), but not to mention it would be unforgivable. In general, we can do our best to make our own lives happy and meaningful, becoming as often as possible on the “white cells” of the chessboard of our lives.
Why does life seem unfair?
Everyone will agree that someone is trying to achieve happiness all his life, but somehow fails anyway. And someone at the same time does not try, and everything comes to him by itself. Where does such injustice come from?
There is an explanation (which no one is forcing upon anyone). Scientists and doctors are convinced in practice that life after death exists, it is also reincarnation - the transmigration of souls after death. When the patient died, but in the last seconds he was brought back to life, he said that he saw some terrible creatures who wanted to take him. But few people believe in it. This is strange, because now many people believe in karma and the possibility of rebirth.
If we assume that life after death does exist, it becomes clear that a person who suffers in this life has committed evil deeds in the past and now bears punishment for them.
