Just for supposition. Imagine a situation if Gautam Buddha had not left his kingdom and gone in search of the truth. Buddhism would have not grown so big and expanded through the continents. Similarly, when we open our shackles that are holding us back we will be able to grow and expand and reach a point when search continues but there is no disappointment. Meditation helps in letting go off the expectations and move into a balanced state.
Keep Meditating
