Heaven sends its trial according to each individual - From the initiatic point of view

From the initiatic point of view, success is not always desirable. Of course, if a person is weak and sickly it would be better if they did not encounter any major obstacles on their way, because if they fall down they will never get up again. But if they are strong, setbacks will strengthen them further: adversity and enemies will give them energy, as if they were food for them, and one day they will become invincible. Unfortunately, there are not many people who pursue their path with courage, despite the obstacles and adversity they encounter. Most are easily discouraged and devastated. You need to be highly evolved to draw strength from adversity. In fact, sometimes it is heaven itself that sets trials for certain people because it knows their nature, it knows that they need to be faced with the greatest difficulties to reach the summit. Whereas heaven goes gently with others because otherwise, that would soon be the end of them. So heaven treats each individual differently. This is why it is difficult to foretell the destiny of human beings. Often misfortunes seem to be a punishment imposed by heaven, when in reality, the opposite is true: they are the right conditions to compel people to climb to the top.*
