For the best quality grapes, wine makers know the environment cannot be lush and easy. You find flourishing wineries in somewhat dry looking, semi-desert areas. Without challenges, the best flavors of the grape stay dormant.
One great Sufi wrote he was concerned God had deserted him, since challenges and difficulties had disappeared from his outer life. What a diametrically opposed viewpoint to the mindset found in our modern times, where most students primarily seek comfort and ease under the guise of the “spiritual” search.
