A N Murthy Rao's book - Devaru. This is chapter 6 of his book titled: "ಕೇಡು, ಸ್ವಾತಂತ್ರ್ಯ, ಸಂಕಟ, ಲೀಲೆ " where the author addresses each of the 4 aspects per the title : ಕೇಡು (Harm / Evil), ಸ್ವಾತಂತ್ರ್ಯ (Freedom), ಸಂಕಟ (Suffering / Pain) and ಲೀಲೆ (Sport / Play). The author raises questions of God's role when one's freedom causes suffering for other innocent people. He digs deeper in how we convince ourselves on Suffering despite that making no sense. He concludes finally saying that when we have to call all this a fun sport for him is utmost stupidity and its time for us to say - we will help ourselves instead of asking god to help us.
