Relationship

When a relationship is not working, it is usually because there are needs and expectations that are not being met. There might be so much anger or hatred that your only desire might be just to run away from it all. However, this is not a solution! It merely reflects your lack of understanding about where the real problem lies.

The root of all needs and expectations is an unfulfilled spiritual desire. Satisfy your spiritual desires through the practice of meditation and you'll be able to interact successfully with anyone.No longer needy, you will enter into relationships simply to share and enjoy. There'll be no strings attached in the way you give of yourself; your love will be unconditional.

We must learn to bring spirituality into our relationships.Others will learn by our example. It's a way of inspiring and uplifting each other.

  1. Very true.When you bring spiritual ballast in your life, things no nlonger are the same.But for ordinary mortals who have no spiritual bent life is a miserable when even minimum needs and expectations are not met.Relationships do nsuffer in the process
