There
exists a relation between father-mother, brother-sister, wife-children,
but it is not real. It is only a relative relationship. If it were real,
it could never be destroyed.
Asfar as relatives are concerned, you should act according to your
relationship with them. You should not be rigid or adamant about rights
and wrongs if you are to sustain that relationship. Inflexibility
will destroy
the relationship. When the other person is trying to destroy the relationship,
you should mend it if you want to maintain that relationship.
These are all temporary relations. For example if your wife says,
‘ today is a full moon night and you say, ‘no, it is a moonless
night’ then the bickering will start and will last all night. In the
morning she will be sulking and you will know that the argument is not
over when she deliberately bangs the cup of tea while serving you. Instead
it is better if you understand the situation when she becomes adamant.
Gently turn the argument around, consult a horoscope and pretend to agree
with her. If you do
not do
that, the argument will get out of control and then if you were to give in
suddenly, she will fall harder and you will have
to bear the consequences.
Instead it is better to be aware from the start and
to let go gently. |
