Up to that point, my whole life had been fine. I had graduated from university and started to pursue my career. I had a job I liked and had excellent superiors and friends. <br> <br> Nevertheless, often when I was on the commuter train, I would wonder what I really wanted in my life. If I had one wish, what would I wish for? A husband who would give me a lot of happiness? A fortune so that I wouldn’t need to worry for the rest of my life? No. I decided that what I really wanted was the strength to stay calm, no matter what—for if I had that strength, everything would be fine. <br> <br> When I heard Maharaji’s message, it had a big impact on me. After I received Knowledge, I began practicing and enjoying it. It soaks into me like water—water that comes to me one drop at a time. I feel I’m crossing a vast river alone, even when I am in the packed commuter train or in my busy office, and I’ll continue crossing this river forever. I don’t know where I am going, but I have no worries anymore. <br> <br> When I remember the time I used to wish for Aladdin’s lamp, I chuckle. I definitely got my wish—and my highest dream came true. <br> <br> Mitsuko S. - Japan Expressions
