Dear ks3,

 

We should be very careful when we read the

speeches of Vivekananda. I know he says that one

should try to lead a brahmacharya life. But now a days

brahmacharya means only abstaining from sex just like

Yoga means people think yoga Asanas only where as it

is just one among the Patajalies ashthAnga yoga

suthras.

A brahmachAri is one who try's to win over " kama,

krodha,moha,lobha, madha,matsara " . and notice kAma is

just one among the six and just abstaining from that

and still having the rest five will be of no use.

 

I personally feel we should never consider sex as

impure. If we see our Rishis every one of them were

married and son is a prerequisite for mOksha. But in

there case wive's were also following the spiritual

path. So you should make sure whether the girl will

really value your spiritual ideas and help in your

journey. Even Sri Ramakrishna has said, there is

nothing wrong in marrying but we should have sex only

for progeny not for mental pleasure.

 

I hope this helps.

Amma Aarthi,

Do not lose hope! AA Swamy margam edo untundi.

Pray to HIM as you do everday. HE HAS HIS WAYS TO HELP AND TAKE CARE

OF HIS CHILDREN. YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW WHEN OR HOW. HIS HELPING HAND

COMES IN A MOST UNKNOWN WAY! SO SUDDENLY.

If I may suggest: Sometimes it maybe best to get out of the place, and

either try going to India, or try in Australia. I have known people

that worked here, and lost jobs because of lay-offs, who were here in

US with families, who left their vehicles in some parking lots and

left for India for good. Home country would never say no. It may be

better to try in India than suffering in England. It is not worth

suffering in England, out of place, out of home country.

Dear Aarathi:

 

 

 

I am touched to know of your plight in a far away land. However, please do the

Art of Living Basic Course and the Art of Living family will take care of your

lives. Please visit the web site http://artofliving.org/ and do the Basic

Course. You might be wondering whether I am out of my mind to suggest to a

person to do a course instead of offering financial or material help. Let me

assure you that your present difficult situation will go away and you both will

be happy. Please let me know whether or not what I have just told you has come

true or not in the next few weeks.

I am writing this letter because I need help and I need it as soon as

possible.

 

My family which consists of me, my husband, my two daughters, two

sons, and my two grandchildren are going through some really hard

financial times right now. I do not know why these tribulations are

being placed upon our shoulders right now, but what I do know is that

they are very hard to bear.

 

Please allow me to start at the very beginning.

 

My husband and I bought our home a little less than five years ago,

all four of my children and one grandchild lived with us at the time.

Our oldest son who had graduated from high school soon left for the

army reserves. Shortly after his graduation from boot camp he was

sent overseas for a little over a year. When my son returned he moved

back into our home and stayed with us for about two months as he

wanted to live on his own, so with the money he saved up from his

army pay he and my youngest daughter got their own apartment and

moved out. They were only able to keep this apartment for a little

less than a year as the government began deducting money from his

pay; the government informed him and his unit that they had over paid

them $15,000.00 while overseas so now he had to pay them back, so

they began garnishing his check. This led to his not being able to

keep up with the costs of renting so he and my daughter had to move

back home. My son has been actively seeking employment for over a

year now and so far nothing.

 

My youngest daughter has been going to school to become a nurse so we

help her with her transportation to and from school and externship

with a car that was given to us by a close friend. We have to pay

the insurance on that vehicle and she pays for gas with the little

income she makes from her part time job.

 

During this time my oldest daughter and grandchild who had moved out

and was living with her baby's father became pregnant again,

everything was going fine so we thought until the week after she gave

birth to a beautiful baby girl. Well one night we heard a knock on

our door and there stood our daughter with our grandchildren. He had

driven her to our house and told her he would pick her up the next

day but he never showed up. He had left her; he stole her car and

trashed the apartment they were living in so she could not return. We

honestly did not want her to return because if he was capable of that

imagine what else he would be capable of.

 

So now all the kids who flew the coup had now returned, with one

extra. My youngest son is still in high school.

 

I am on SSI for Systemic Lupus, Fibromyalgia and Chronic and Severe

Asthma and get $637.00 per month. My husband who is the only major

bread winner in the house lost his overtime at work and tries to do

the best he can with the little we have supporting a household of 8

with him included. There are times when we have very little food and

have to go without eating so that the kids can eat, well at least my

grandchildren and my youngest son, but it is very hard on us to watch

all the kids go hungry, no matter what age they are.

 

 

 

Our home is going into foreclosure and we most certainly do not have

enough to pay the bills (utilities) let alone take care of so many

with the prices as high as they are for gas and food. Just this

summer and part of the fall we had to by a new our hot water heater

as ours gave out, we had to fix the main sewer pipe from outside

which flooded our basement during all the rain we had, we had to fix

the roof on the second and third floor because we had major leaks and

we also had to fix the plumbing under the kitchen sink and basement

because they were leaking! Those are just a few of the reasons for

our not being able to pay our mortgage anymore and keep up with the

bills.

 

Life is getting too hard for us to continue going on this way.

 

My husband and I went to CCCs to get help to save our home from going

into full blown foreclosure but they told us that since our " Debt to

income Ratio " was too high we really do not qualify for anything. The

mortgage co won't even help us because we are high risk and with

things going the way they are right now with the economy they are

being very strict in their selection process. So we were told to put

our home up for sale in at least a week or two and if it does not

sell within 60 days to have the real-estate agent call the mortgage

co and have them do a short-sale which means we lose everything.

 

The problem is, is that we DO NOT want to lose our home, we love our

home, we love our neighborhood, we love our neighbors. This is our

home, we put money into this house, we put our blood, sweat and tears

into this house, we want to keep our home and grow old in our home…my

family is being torn apart from this. The holidays are coming and we

are so stressed out and scared we don't know what to do!

 

Being that my husband is the only bread winner in the house this has

him so stressed out, he already has high blood pressure and I don't

want anything to happen to him. My husband is a sweetheart, everyone

who meets him loves him, he is a jokester and just tries to make

everyone who is around him feel good. When we are either on the road

or the highway if he sees a stranded motorist he stops and helps

them, he helps change flats for people he doesn't even know, if he

sees an elderly person who has too many groceries he pulls up beside

them and asks if they need a ride and if they do if gives it to them

without ever accepting any money for the favor. He does favors for

the elderly on our block, he shovels there snow, rakes leaves, helps

with their trash. I love my husband so much and I don't think it is

fair to him to have t o worry and suffer so.

 

So what I am doing is asking for help from the people of Philadelphia

and all over the world to please save our home and our family and

hopefully this will in turn save the world as more and more people

who are in need will begin to ask and receive as well. We as a

people, as a human race should help one another. If everyone in this

world donated $1.00 to those in need regardless of race, creed or

color without judgments then in my honest opinion no one would have

to suffer or carry so much stress that they become ill and every one

would have and the world would be blessed.

 

It says in the bible, " Ask and you shall receive " so I am asking with

all faith hoping that I will receive.

 

When I was at the CCCS center I had asked the counselor, " Just for

the sake of it, how much time would we have if we were to receive a

miracle and were able to pay the mortgage and keep our home? " and he

just looked at me and his reply was, " I'm not even going to answer

that, I live in the world of reality, I'm a realist, that type of

stuff only happens on TV. " I was like wow, he just burst my bubble,

but I want to prove him and everyone else who doesn't believe in

miracles wrong! So can you please help me?

 

Thank you so much and God Bless you all with everything Good your

heart desires.
