AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How should you deal with people whether friends, colleagues or others where you’ve put in genuine effort to maintain the relationship, but they respond with indifference, disinterest or little reciprocity😏?

Their response is their karma. We should not be effected by how they respond. But yes one should see and understand the nature of such people and it is good to keep a little distance but maintain the goodwill knowing that nothing should be expected from them. In fact it is best to do what one must do without expectation from anyone. That makes life simple and easy to handle.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
