![“This [worldly suffering] is indeed the result of a flawed-vision. When this flawed-vision goes away, the world will be seen “As it is”. By sitting with the ‘Experienced Person’ whose flawed-vision is gone, our flawed-vision will go away. Nothing else will make it go away.” quote by Dada Bhagwan](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/ef3/dada-bhagwan-31_spiritual_this-worldly-suffering-is-indeed-the-res_795148.jpg)
