Guest guest Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Dear Sir,I have recently lost my mother where is she gone, she had spent her life doing good & sacrificing selflessly for others, she always believed in not living for self.Deepa Thakkar ------ Namaste Love and serve your Mother and Father while they are alive - they are our gods on earth. Too many of us in this Age of Kalyug are too busy for our parents and grandparents, a marked difference from the extended Hindu family structure that was the envy of other societies. Yes, I am fully aware, from personal experience, about the hectic days we live in, and the modern lifestyle, but you cannot be a true sadhak if you ignore or abandon your parents. After death, the relationship is non-existent; this is extremely difficult for us to bear, it is terribly agonizing when an intimate and loving relationship is abruptly terminated but the fact is these relationships are earthly and do not exist after death. There is no after-death soul to soul relationship - the soul occupies another body. 11. Thou hast been mourning for them who should not be mourned for. Yet thou speakest words of wisdom. The (truly) wise grieve neither for the living nor the dead. 12. It is not that I have never existed, nor thou, nor these kings. Nor is it that we shall cease to exist in the future. 13. As are childhood, youth, and old age, in this body, to the embodied soul, so also is the attaining of another body. Calm souls are not deluded thereat. GITA 2:11-13 22. Even as a man casts off worn-out clothes, and puts on others which are new, so the embodied casts off worn-out bodies, and enters into others which are new. GITA 2:22 If you truly love and serve your parents and study and live by Gita ji (read Chapter 2), then you will most likely not find it difficult to bear the pain and anguish when depart their earthly bodies. 27. Of that which is born, death is certain, of that which is dead, birth is certain. Over the unavoidable, therefore, thou oughtest not to grieve. 28. All beings are unmanifested in their beginning, O Bhârata, manifested in their middle state and unmanifested again in their end. What is there then to grieve about? 29. Some look upon the Self as marvelous. Others speak of It as wonderful. Others again hear of It as a wonder. And still others, though hearing, do not understand It at all. 30. This, the Indweller in the bodies of all, is ever indestructible, O descendant of Bharata. Wherefore thou oughtest not to mourn for any creature. GITA 2:27-30 As a tribute to your parents, you should try to live the life that would have made them satisfied and happy of the child they brought into this world. Ram Ram, Deosaran Bisnath ---------------------------- Shree Paramatmane Nam: Daughter Deepa, mother has been with you at all time from eternity (you have not looked within to seek her). The only thing that has left is her body. For that you certainly do feel sad, but with due time this pain will lessen. So be it, Sarvottam ---------- Deepaji, Please refer to BG chapter 2 & 15 (Atma & Paramatma) and you will find the answer, as well as peace of mind. I did when my parents passed away and have encouraged many to do so as part of bereavement process. Aum Shanti... Dr Bhala. -------- We should learn, thank/pay our gratitude and learn to celebrate even such happenings, where a person starts his Part-2 journey after living a good pure fulfilled life.....inspiring others, setting an example for others..... We are all so fortunate that we get so much love from others.......let it act like a seed to grow love many folds and in turn distribute to others..... For answers on the process, let us have more clarity on the principles of life that govern us....experientially....step by step.... It is all about joy and happiness in the end..... Sushil Jain ------- Shree Hari Ram Ram You can still obey her by following her words, her footsteps of "selflessness" and it will be doing "seva" to (serving) her. When she is served, God's grace, her blessings, will make you free of "I-ness" (nirahankar). As many things that you put to service, from that many things you will become detached and attain eternal "peace" (shanti).What a wonderful opportunity God has arranged for you / us all. Meera Das, Ram Ram ------- Shree Hari. Ram Ram. I am sorry to hear about your loss. You are very fortunate that your mother was a great soul who dedicated her life in service of others. Swami Ramsukh Das (and also Srimad Bhagavatam and Gita) give seva (selfless service) to others and remembrance of Paramatma as main ways to make human life successful. Your mother made her life successful by doing seva. Self (or atma) does not die after death. It takes another body or goes back to Bhagavam by ending cycle of birth and death. Death is like accepting new clothes for the soul. I am confident that your mother has attained higher destination. Either she has gone back to Bhagavan or she will take next birth where she will continue her journey for spiritual advancement by leading life of selfless seva and remembrance of Bhagavan. Ram Ram.
