AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

So what to do to balance it out? Being Righteous is good, right? Just not to feel superior due to it? Or consider others less? Or should we act according to the situation? 🤔🪷🦋

One should not worry about others at all. Each person and each creature follows his own law and way of being. A snake does not stop releasing poison because it is biting a good person. It is its nature. So too the cow does not stop giving milk because the milkman is bad. That is the cow’s nature. Saintly people do not become bad when they meet a bad person. So too each of us must live by our true nature, Swabhava and Swadharma, as the Gita puts it. The challenges of life are there, but we must face them by the truth of our soul.
