From my Understanding people suffer because of the ACTIONS they commited in there past LIVES or even in THE present one, which means every action has a result, my question here is this, some people suffer by mistake, meaning unwanted actions they did, eventually will lead them into suffering, so is this suffering called karma or something else?

Romans 12:2, says, "Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer!

And with this verse, how exactly does rejoice in hope!

What is hope? Hope’s definition is to have “to have confidence or trust”. How do we become confident in something? “Hope - like faith - is derived from experience.” Gnostic Instructor.

To have hope based off of belief or a concept is foolish there is nothing behind it. True hope is direct experience. That is to rejoice in the practices that are given in Gnosis in order to experience. Therefore, to have confidence, trust, authentic in Hope is to be full of joy. In other words Rejoice in hope. Arcanum 17: Hope

“We rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts.” – Romans 5:3-5

“Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. 2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” - Romans 12:1-2

As stipulated by Tsong Khapa regarding the first certainty of karma, every action has a consequence, including accidental ones. Even the Archangel Sakaki must pay karma for his accidental miscalculation, whereby the Kundabuffer organ was removed from our humanity too late.

Just as negative karma is certain, so too is positive karma, a certainty that produces great inspiration and joy, because a superior law always transcends an inferior one. When you experience this, you strive in the way of God with determination, because you know the dharma is real.

For thirty years I sought God. But when I looked carefully I found that in reality God was the seeker and I the sought. -Bayazid al-Bastami

I thought humanity still has this terrible organ, but you say it was removed, "whereby the Kundabuffer organ was removed from our humanity too late.
Please elaborate Almustafa? And thanks for always replying!

At that time [Lemuria], the Kundabuffer, being introduced into the human organism, intensified the organisms perception of physical matter by means of stronger physical sensations. This helped that ancient race forget their worries about being mere machines. This new organ gave them the appreciation for the environment in which they lived. But unfortunately, due to certain karmic influences, when the guides of humanity finally removed this organ so the evolution of this species would continue, a certain shadow remained, a shadow of that intensified sensation: an attraction towards energy and matter. It is from this shadow that desire emerged: the "I" emerged, the ego, the desire for sensation. -Gnostic Instructor

Joyful in hope, suffering in tribulation, be thou constant in thy prayer.

Benedictis, qui venit in nomine Domini. Osanna in excelsis.

"Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest!"
