hello mylotters, this morn i joined a philosophical meeting. one point touched my heart. that is, "when a baby is born, it cries, its fist is closed, but we are all happy, we laugh, smile. but when he/she dies completing the role here, on this earth, he keeps quiet, calm, as if smiling, his palm is open. as if he declares, 'see i came with all in my closed fist, now am not taking back'". and friends, we cry, mourn his/her death. what for? this is philosophy of life, how true? please share your opinion.

in our language we call it "MOH MAYA" we get so much attachment with that person, when he, we used to be habitual to stay, to talk , to pass our time with him, this way our attachment increase a lot, when the person he breaks all the attachment with this weird world and left us, as similarly when love hurts a person

Some years ago, a friend said to me that babies are born crying because they know about all the pain and sorrow and sufferings that they will be facing in their life. They carry this knowledge from the past life when they are born but those feeling fade away soon and they start to stop crying and begin to laugh.
