We often equate strength with muscle power or physical prowess. Yet sometimes we find that Srila Prabhupada and his teachings expressed strength in terms of tolerance. For example: “The Lord is so kind to His devotee that when severely testing him the Lord gives him the necessary strength to be tolerant and continue to remain a glorious devotee”. (Srimad Bhagavatam 8.22.29-30)
Tolerance equals Strength
