Sorrow

Sorrow is an 'ununderstandable' process of creating joy. Just as summer is the only process of creating rainy season. One has to enjoy oneself in nature but be prepared for the sorrow that follows. Tears and smiles do exist together because they enrich each other. Just as summer is the mother of rainy season, a tear drop is the mother of smiles. If we hate tear drops we are denied smiles. Those who love tear drops need not pray for smiles. We always try to separate them which is not possible and also not desirable. A story doesn't have only heroes or protagonists. The presence of a villain enhances the effect of the work. we can imagine how dull a literary work would be with out conflicts. But when it comes to life we expect it to be devoid of sorrow. is it possible to have only happiness without sorrow?

Detached Attachment- Essence of Gita

Therapeutic attachment:
Another aspect sir always emphasizes is detached attachment. sir gives a simple example to explain this. While climbing up using a rope one has to hold the rope with one hand and leave the other. This process of holding and leaving the rope continues till one reaches the end of the rope. Similarly in life one has to be attached for a while as long as it gives happiness and detach oneself soon to move ahead. Sir doesn't prefer an ascetic life.Sorrow is an 'ununderstandable' process of creating joy. Just as summer is the only process of creating rainy season.
