See you all soon with another post and I will leave you all with another quote for you to ponder on.

दुर्लभं हि सदा सुखं

Durlabham hi sadaa sukham

 2.18.13

To be happy always is something which is difficult to achieve.  That is to say,  happiness and sorrow alternate in one’s life and there cannot be uninterrupted happiness alone.

[Context: Rama’s words to Kaikeyi when he saw his father deep in sorrow and in tears at the prospect of Rama going  into the forest for 14 years.]
