Why does God allow suffering?

In truth, God does not want us to suffer, but because of our individualism, our unbridled desire to develop the pleasure of the senses, our desire to work constantly in materialism, to increase our material goods and establish our power, of our wish to knowingly ignore that our thoughts, words and acts generate effects which in turn cause negative consequences which, in the long term, can cause others to suffer, and of our disrespect and non-application of divine precepts and commandments, suffering is useful and necessary, because it allows us to regain reason, to no longer act irresponsibly and to modify our behavior by applying the scriptural prescriptions from the Vedas, the original holy scriptures.

It is through suffering that man erases his faults, that he reduces the number of accumulated sins, that he can become aware of the pain that his guilty acts engender, and thus lead him to take the resolution not to never start again.

The Lord concludes by saying: “After having passed through all the conditions of hellish suffering and having experienced in the natural order the lowest forms of

animal life, the spiritual being having thus purged his faults is reborn again in a human form on this earth.”
