AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

My mother lives in denial and delusion about herself and her equation with everyone around, now that is a problem more for the people around her and if I tell her anything like how she behaved in the past, she will plainly deny and fight with me, How to deal with this kind of a person?

The more you try to explain to her, the more she is likely to resist and become fixed in her position. Best is to leave her to her ways. She will learn in her own time and in her own way.

Affectionately,

Alok Da
