Dear Gurudev, how do I help my adult children to forget about our past and be loving again?
As I said, don’t ask for explanations of the past. Don’t say, "Let us sit and talk it out". Don’t do this. I am not for this at all. When people have misunderstandings, they say, "Let us talk it out". This & ... -
Dear Gurudev, how do I find peace for the misery I have caused. My husband passed away in April 2015. He lived alone for 15 months and made his last telephone call to me and I screamed at him. I did not listen to what he had to say. He was having affairs throughout our marriage and I caught him 15 months ago. I could not forgive him. Today, I am sorry.
That’s okay. You should move on. Life is like a river. Sometimes muddy water fills the river, sometimes clear water fills it; sometimes all the leaves of the fall float in the river and sometimes logs float, but the river never stops ... -
Dear Gurudev, how do I forgive my brother for all the nasty things that he has done to me and my family?

How can we be sure that it is intuition and not the ego?
Time will tell you. If it was intuition, it will never go wrong. If it has gone wrong, it was never an intuition. ... -
Dearest Gurudev, what is your understanding of Asperger’s Syndrome, otherwise known as High-functioning Autism. My loved one has just been diagnosed.
I can’t comment on it as I have not studied this disease in-depth. Someone should do deep research on autism as to why so many kids are being diagnosed with the condition these days, especially in America. It has become a very big issue there. ... -
I feel that my wife and kids are moving away from spirituality. I do not want to push them. Is there anything I can do, except having patience?
That’s okay. You don't push kids too much, but sometimes you should gently encourage them. Sometimes you feel too shy thinking that they might take it as pushing, so you don’t even encourage them. I would say, you need to encourage ... -
Dear Gurudev, how do I help my mother stop talking ill of her sister? My mother is 76 years old and her sister is 74.
Don’t try to do that. Let her talk and empty it all out. If you want to play some games, write a nice card and say, "Your sister has sent you this!" Anyway, they both may not be able to read it properly so you say, "I will read it f ...
