On the topic of suffering and spiritual evolution

On the topic of suffering and spiritual evolution. From a certain shamanic scholar:

Tell yourself that you no longer need it! It is up to you how you will learn. You can learn through diseases, through wars… to infinity. Some people think they need illness to teach them humility. But a spiritual being does not need to be humble or self-centered – that has nothing to do with consciousness and being. Is a blade of grass arrogant or humble? In the Andes, it is said that those who suffer are pests because invisible parasites feed on them and they can then endanger others. So please don't be so self-centered and don't be sick! Let's look for other ways to learn than by suffering.
