Sufferings in His Life

– You have suffered a lot in your life. How did you overcome events that could have smothered your enthusiasm and smashed you?

– Once I was followed for 6 years as if I were a traitor. It bothered me, but I forgot it. I don't feel hostility toward anyone now. Even then I approached the matter logically, not emotionally. I've forgiven the people who did this. If one day I see the faith of people secured and a peaceful atmosphere surrounding the world, then everything will have been worthwhile. [Nevval Sevindi,Yeni Yuzyil daily, August, 1997]
