About This Quote

This line is from the movie 'Tibetan Book of Living and Dying', which is a view on death. The author, Sogyal Rinpoche, says that we use our suffering to become stronger and realize our true spiritual nature. It's like a meditation, but all the while believing that we can get through it. If we lose hope, then we give up on the opportunity of working through our suffering.
