Death 13 Dadashri: Yes, it is not easy to forget, but if you do not, it will make you both miserable. As a father you have to ensure that you do not hurt him any more. Questioner: In what way is he hurt? Dadashri: When you grieve over him, your unhappiness reaches him exactly and for sure. It is akin to a telephone or a television in terms of its remote effects. This is the nature of vibrations created within, in this world. Will your grieving bring him back? Questioner: No. Dadashri: Is there anyway that he will come back? Questioner: No. Dadashri: When you grieve, your grief reaches him and when you pray for him, your prayers too reach him and he will be at peace. Is it not your duty to give him peace? You can even distribute some sweets to the children at school in your son’s memory. Whenever you remember your son, you should say a prayer for the liberation of his soul. Uttering the names of Self-realized beings like ‘Krupadudev’ or even ‘Dada Bhagwan’ will help you. That is because both ‘Dada Bhagwan’ and ‘Krupadudev’ are the same as far as the Soul is concerned. They are different beings, but in their elemental form they are the same. Even when you say the name of Lord Mahavir, it is one and the same. Your only desire should be for the liberation of his soul. You pray for the good of others, so why must you not do the same for those who are very close to you? You lived with him and shared everything with him and now your only desire should be for his salvation.
