Step-2

Only having fun, only earning money, only relaxing at the beach, only having holiday … is not giving real happiness … also only living a normal life is not giving real happiness. May be even we reach our professional goals and then wonder why we become depressive. (I have seen persons who had all these material things and were unhappy and some of them committed suicide.) Why?

If you see a person or yourself  suffering from depression or addiction f.e., you will see, that you don't have the power to stop this … independent how strong your wish is. Why?

If you are in a situation, where you ask yourself for what you are living, you will experience, that you are not able to create your own vision and/or to give your life a meaning by yourself. And even if you have an idea, you come to know, that you don't have enough strength to carry it out. Why?

On the other hand we see persons, who were living in unbelievable terrible situations, who found the strength and vision to come out of their misery. Have they had a stronger ego … and ours is only too weak? So is the answer to strengthen our ego only and then we are able to lead a happy life?

 If we take a little time and look at these people and compare them with those, who failed up to now, then the difference is very clear … they found a power greater than theirselves … something greater than the ego. And many of them call it God. (we will not start the mistake to describe this power, we only accept that it is existing … and that these people came in contact with this Higher Power.)
