preparing

[Guest guest]

hello all,

I was wondering if there is any way to prepare for the

eventual death of our relatives and friends .

can somebody give some light on this in the context of

Sri Ramakrisna's teachings?

Sri Ramakrishna said:

" Lakshman said to Rama, `How strange! Vaishishtha Deva is such a

jnani (great man of knowledge). Even he wept inconsolably at the death

of his son.'... "

 

Swami Vivekananda said:

We need reason to drive out all the old superstitions; and what

remains is Vedantism. There is a beautiful Sanskrit poem in which the

sage says to himself: " Why weepest thou, my friend? There is no fear

nor death for thee. Why weepest thou? There is no misery for thee, for

thou art like the infinite blue sky, unchangeable in thy nature.

Clouds of all colours come before it, play for a moment, and pass

away; it is the same sky. Thou hast only to drive away the clouds. "

Namaste,

 

When you love someone you miss them

when they are gone, that’s the nature of love. The best thing we can do for others is to awaken, then the

bonds of our love to others become golden threads that lift them as well.
