LET US NOT MAKE IT A GRAVEYARD. LET US NOT EAT FLESH. LET US BE VEGETARIANS AND STAY HEALTHY. Chattampi Swamikal said that animals are to be loved, not eaten. Eating flesh is good neither for the mind nor for the intellect, not even for the body. It distorts the basic character of human.

Hare Krishna !

 

Dear Vinodji

 

It is not that you have to totally get detached from family. You can live with family detached like panja bhootas.

They are not attached to anything.....but as it should work, it works.

 

O Namo Bhagavathe Vasudevaya !!

 

best regards

Hello Vinodji

Maybe there is a way for being detached and I am too immatured to

understand it.But these are my thoughts on this matter and request

other scholarly members to correct me if I am wrong.

But how can a person be detached from a family when the reason he

gets into a family life is to have bonding.If a father or mother be

detached without getting involved with the kids, wont the kids grow

up having no attachment to the family and world? If he does it that

way , is he not failing in his/her duties as parent? I used to think

that a family person should keep the bonding of the family and face

the struggles of the life together thinking its God's way to make us

more closer to Him.When the kids through this guidance and bonding

gets enough maturity and starts their own family life, then slowly

parents should enter into a life that is dedicated only to God and

detachment will automatically be part of life at that time.

Pardon me if I am wrong!

Om namo narayana...om namo narayana....om namo narayana...

Dear Vinodh,Detachmant is not indifference.Actually if you are detacheed only then you can k help your next kith and kin.Then only you will show real affection and lov because you will be rid of possessiveness.To think that nothing and no one belongs to you and live as an instrument of God is detachment.To give up all desire-motivated activities is detachment.IT means not to be affected by anything thinking that your senses and mind gets into contact with the objects outside and people outside but not you.It is to view everything as transient as they are going to last only for this lifetime at the maximum while your existence wu ill continue for ever.If you see the saints like the Paramacharya of Kanchi they were very much concerned about people and showed thier love to all but they were not involved with any one. Such people only s pread happiness

around. So while being in the family you can practise detachment. remembering the words of Gita 'karmanyeva adhikaarasthe maa phaleshu kadhachana.'If you want to discuss more on this you can write to me.

Hare Krishna,

 

I am not a qualified person to touch this subject. The

fact is that family is the main cause of all human

sufferings like ageing, separation and deathfear.

Let Krishna detach us from this world.

OM NAMO NARAYANAYA

 

Sorry for writing this mail into your personal mailid.

 

I used to read all the mails from you as well as from other knowledgable fellow devotees.

I was also trying hard to get detachment from the family attachments, but was failure. Evenif try hard to concentrate on bhakthi and Bhagavan, at a point of time I find myself going back to the same attachement.

 

If you find out some way for the same, pls let me know.

 

OM NAMO NARAYANAYA
