When a cheild is born, who rejoice? The parents, realtives and friends??? But who cries? The child.. However, when we die, it should be the other way round. We should be rejoicing and have the saticfication that we made a contribution to the world and left the wold a little better place than we found it. Let the world cry that it has lost a good sould and become pooner. Hindu philosophy believes that when good people pass away, they don't die. Their names live on forever through their good deeds. Recall the last time you heard an eul;ogy. As people pay their respects, the most common things talked about are the little acts of kndness performed by the person during his liftime. Little acts of kindness don't go unnoticed. If fact, their impact becomes even more potent after a person is gone. That is when people realize how much those little acts of kindness meant to them... No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave, isn't it!

When a child is born, actually nobody rejoices. The child's parents and relatives will be sad because their child is born into a world where there is less and less of love and more and more of hatred and violence. The modern world is the new definition for HELL. Who wants their child to grow up in a hell learning it's ways? "A man is born crying and leaves this world when he has finished crying." --- From the film "Ran" by Akira Kurosawa.
