There are many people who consider worship as important. They disregard work in the process. This is the big mistake. Worship is important, of course. But, what is worship? Offering of various kinds of flowers to the image of God is not worship in the real sense. You should offer the flower of your heart to God. That is why I told you earlier, "offer to God the flowers of non-violence and sense control, compassion on all creatures, forbearance and peace, penance, meditation and truth above all." These flowers are dear to the Lord.

(From : Sai Veda, The Word of God by Ramadas Gollapudi)

There is no reason at all to suffer in this miserable material existence because this is not our actual home.  We are actually residents of that wondrous transcendental abode where all suffering is conspicuous by its absence, the Vaikuntha realm where the Supreme Lord eternally resides engaging in unlimited loving pastimes with His pure devotees.  We simply must get back to our original enlightened nature, which we enjoyed eternally before we made the foolish mistake of playing with fire by our desire to see what it would be like if we were God. This is the forbidden apple that is mentioned in the Bible. We can enjoy unlimited happiness as a servant of God in His eternal kingdom. But there is one thing that we are not entitled to.  We are not entitled to be God.
