In English
These mental processes vary according to varying situations. The kind of relationship that exists amongst people decides the nature of their mental responses. The love that the mother has for a daughter is different from the love that she has for her daughter-in-law. The love one has for one’s own son is different from the love that one has for the son-in-law. The infatuation that one has for one’s wife is different from the reverential affection one has for one’s mother. What is the cause of all this? It is the relationship which determines responses like love, affection, infatuation etc. Why is the mind bound by these ephemeral and transient relationships?
