Question: Does the Supreme send hostile forces to us to give us experiences and to test us?
Sri Chinmoy: No, the Supreme will never send hostile forces to give us an experience. He will not instigate something like that. He will never ask the hostile forces to go and attack some person so that after he is attacked the person will understand his Master’s compassion.
