Summary

Listen to episode 1022 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Overcoming Your Pain & Sorrow. Edited & adapted from The Path to Prosperity by James Allen.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: Is there no way of escape from pain and sorrow? Are there no means by which bonds of evil may be broken? Is permanent happiness, secure prosperity, and abiding peace a foolish dream?

No, there is a way, and I speak it with gladness, by which evil can be slain forever; there is a process by which disease, poverty, or any adverse condition or circumstance can be overcome; there is a method by which a permanent prosperity can be secured, free from all fear of the return of adversity, and there is a practice by which unbroken and unending peace and bliss can be partaken of and realized.
