Death... the unsaid fear that haunts each of us even if we don't accept it.
None of us know how, when and where we too will succumb to it. But the closest I got to it was when I lost my mom recently. It has been tough ever since to accept her absence from our lives forever.
But something has happened inside me since then. Something I am still trying to understand and analyze.
I seem to be getting deeper and deeper within me.... further and further beyond what is visible. Questions coming to me every moment...
What are we after all, Mind, Body or Soul?
Where do we come from, where do we go?
What regulates all of this?
Accepting change is always difficult, but accepting the most painful one is the change that brings the absence of someone you love the most... that too forever. Yet I managed to look beyond the pain, with the able guidance of my mentor God Almighty, and begin to comprehend the reality of life.
Beautifully said in Bhagwad Gita and probably in our other religious books. That we are all here for a purpose. This body is mere a medium given to us to accomplish those goals and reach the purpose. Not the ones we chose along our path, but the one destiny God sent us for to reach.
Amidst all the pain, tears and sorrow of our loss, God Almighty, my favorite teacher, surely ensured he still taught me my lesson. Painting a clearer picture of my purpose in life dusting away the fog that kept it invisible for years and sparingly visible for some. The purpose I am here for, without fulfilling which my life will be a mere waste. Rest all I do will be only for survival and for completing my duties on the path of achieving my purpose, my ultimate goal.
I got clarity of my purpose in life.

Superb one , Anamika ..As humans we are on a spiritual journey but as we have discussed, we are spiritual beings on a human journey . The consciousness lives on and a part of the mind/soul is alive and present!!So your mom is a part of your lives daily , loving you every time you feel low and need her ..
