It is a slow process to feel everyday this sadness and depression. Dear Gary ~ this is a good place for you to be hanging out in terms of what you're going through. I know it has helped me, especially chanting the Chandi. I won't say I know how you feel, but I do empathize because I have been in an off/on again relationship for 6 years. This weekend, we decided to split and I was in a terrible state of loss and grief that seemed it would never end. Then my hubby came back, hat in hand, and we agreed to try again. Personally, given the patterns so far, I don't think it will work out. I'm not sure I want it to work out. That realization, which only came after I got what I thought I wanted (hubby saying he would try, go to anger management class, etc.). He promised this once before and never made the arrangements. So far, it is the same. I think if I/we decide to split again, I will feel grief, but it will not be so dire as what I endured this weekend. My heart goes out to you, and I'm very glad you're here. Blessings ~ Linda P.S. being part of this group, doing the sankalpas as my capacity has allowed, being part of the prayer club, staying connected to Maa and Swamiji ~ these have been my anchor. When I wrote to Swamiji not long ago saying I was grieving the loss of my mother (who died in July) and now what looked like the loss of my hubby, and what should I do, he wrote back and encouraged me to chant the Durga mantra: Om Hrim Shrim Dum Durgayai Namaha (if I have left anything out of the mantra, Nanda, Srini ... please post it correctly.) I go to sleep alone every night because my husband is more in love with his computer gaming, but I am not really alone because I fall asleep chanting this mantra.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Om Namah Shivaya! It is really painful when you experience break up with your loved one. As far me, I had to face the death of my wife two years before (July 2004). That was really a blow for me. Then in 2005, my marriage was arranged in august and I really liked the girl whom I was to marry. But the girl refused to marry on the last day. In Jan 2006, I married to another girl. But she lived with me only for five days and filed for divorce and got that. Why all these things happened? I am beginning to understand the spiritual truth of all these happenings now. when my wife died in July 2004, if I look into spiritual perspective I understand, she has completed her mission for me. If I am to move into next stage, her presence wouldn't have worked. (This is a spiritual point which I realise very late though I was depressed off and on till mar: 2006 and felt a big void.) I should not have looked to a new relationship to fill a void because relationship is a place where I am to show what I can do for the beloved. You must not go into relationship to get security in life as security is provided only by God. As I was insecure, I attracted insecure girls who left me. Hope this helps you. You can always ask God what went wrong in your relationship and get answer in your heart.
