God is closer to you than your relations
A twenty years old son loves his mother very much. She is so much dear to him. After some time, the mother dies. He sits close to her dead body and wails, “Mother, I relied on you for such a long time. Only you protected me and fostered me. Who is there to take care of me now? Mother, why have you left me?” Who is the one that has left? Truly, if the body is the mother, the body is there. Who says it is gone? What really has left? It is only the individual soul ( ). The son loves his mother because the individual soul is present in her. The moment the individual self is lost, the same son cremates the body of the mother without any compassion.
