Fear of losing someone is always there. Nobody’s parents thrive here on
this planet forever. This understanding must come.
Life-giving force is some sort of energy, and science says that energy cannot be created
nor can it be destroyed. So something which is in us has its beginning ever since the first Big Bang
and it will continue to exist. Or it can get transformed. For example, when you believe in
the theory of evolution, something that keeps growing and evolving rather, from a unicellular or single celled
structure to a complex cellular structure - it takes eons of time for it to evolve. But for
human beings - during our lifetime, can we evolve? We can only age.
So what happens to this life force? What do we learn from this life itself? Forget the life before and the life after.
What is the role of this life force at present? It gives me life, but what is the greater purpose of it?
And when we believe that energy was already there before my birth, this life force was already there before my birth.
So, ipso facto, it means it will continue to exist even after that. So we can simply conclude,
“Yes, there was life before this life and there will be life after this life.” So there is no end.
Fear of losing someone is always there. Nobody’s parents thrive here on this planet forever.
This understanding must come. One day they're going to go somewhere, right? So always be prepared.
Not only you, who knows, you might leave before them. Death is a reality, but should we be afraid of it?
Something which is inevitable? No doubt, one misses them. If you lose them while you are so young,
worries come because, “If they are not there, who will support me? Who will pay the rent? Who will pay my fees?”
So all these things do arise in your mind. And the association is so intense, especially with parents.
I would not hazard making remarks that you should not feel like that. We all feel that.
We are all human beings and we have a deep connection. My father passed away in 1993. Do I not cry?
I do cry now and then in my lonely hours at night. You do miss them. But should I worry about it?
You should not. I think it is unnecessary. It's going to happen anyway. So why worry about it? Make yourselves
stronger and stronger. Through prayer again that, “They are there. They were there
before my birth. They'll be there after their death also. And one day we'll catch up and meet them.
