Gurudev, in the mythological story, Ganapati went around his parents and was considered to have gone round the world. Should we also keep our parents as our top priority?
Sri Sri Ravi Shankar:
See, these are okay in stories, but if you actually start only listening to your parents and doing only what they say, soon you will land up frustrated. And if you get very frustrated, you will land up turning all your frustration on them. So in life, a balance is needed in everything. You should listen to them also, and should follow your heart also. Even if they don’t understand immediately, over time they will understand your point of view.
