I quarrel a lot with my mother. I feel bad whenever she scolds me. I even happen to retort. Things are just fine whenever I attend Satsang but then it goes back to the same old routine?
Our mother is the one who is closest to us and we love her from deep within our heart and she too loves us immensely. Then when expectations arise out of this love, like she should do this and she should not do that, it leads to feeling of hatred. At such times we should ponder for a while and think how would I have reacted if I had been in her place? Next how highly we are indebted to her due to her obligations? After all she has always obliged us. Thinking on these lines shall not only prevent us from retorting but shall help us value her contribution towards our growth and develop a feeling of appreciation for her.
