Guest guest Posted December 10, 2005 Report Share Posted December 10, 2005 SAI RAM TO YOU ALL, I JUST WANT TO ASK SOMETHING: IS IT GOOD TO LEAVE YOUR WIFE AND CHILDREN in order to live the life of a sadhu??!? IT IS SELFISH AND COWARDLY. IS THAT WHAT GOD TOLD US TO DO? OR, LOVE OTHERS LIKE YOURSELF, SEE GOD IN ALL AND SERVE THEM? Somethimes I also want to go in some cave and pray, to go away from all those people and all problems but I think that is not what God wants from me and form us all. This story give us a bad example. We have to do Namasmarana in THIS world with all our problems and among all people that sorround us ... and above all: we have to take RESPONSIBILITY of our life, love our wife or husband and our children and be with them because this God gave us our family and we have to be grateful for His gift and not leave them. Is anyone agree with me? Tanja-Croatia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 12, 2005 Report Share Posted December 12, 2005 oneness with God. Develop detatchment for the material things and pleasures and use one's daily actions and duties as an offerring to the Lord. This is the true meaning of "Vairagya" or renounciation. Hope this is helpful Love and regards Deepak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 13, 2005 Report Share Posted December 13, 2005 MARRIAGE is an ATTACHMENT! As ATTACHMENT is nothing but, one's DUTIES, and, RESPONSIBILITIES (note, its not EXPECTATIONS), after getting married, one (he/she) is more ATTACHED (i mean, MORE RESPONSIBLE) to the other. So, if at all, one want to become sanyasin (saadhu), he's to postpone his wishes, to the next birth, and, pray god, to bless ATLEAST in the next-birth, to be a bachelor, also, for the opportunity, to become SANYASIN, i think. There're many a times, me too think on similar lines - when i fedup with this materialistic world, and, to escape from all the worries/tensions - i used to think like, IF my kid was not born, i need not think about earning name/fame/money, and, other things - IF i'd postponed my marriage, for few years, and, if i'd got these spiritual thoughts like becoming sanyasin, WHAT A NICE THING, like. - But, NO CHANCE, indulged COMPLETELY, in these family attachments, and, now, its my duty/responsibility, to take care my family, and, their expectations.
