Love alone can overcome obstacles, however many and mighty.
Since Divinity is enveloped by humanness you must endeavor to overcome the Maya (delusion) that hides it from your eyes.
Anger can be subdued only by forbearance and cruelty can be overcome only by nonviolence.
If you live on the level of the Body and the Individual, you will get entangled in food, fun and frolic, ease, envy and pride. Forget it, ignore it, overcome it -- You will have peace, joy and calm. In the Divine Path, there is no chance of failure; it is the Path of Love.
