If a loved one passes on, the common adage to those losing the loved one is, ‘He/she is always there with you.' Is that really true? Is that loved one who has passed away really there with you and is guiding you in life?

Gurudev, my brother and me received the same upbringing, but at the same time we both are very different, how is it like that?
This is very deep science. You need to think about it some time. The microcosm and the macrocosm are united. In fact it is only one thing. But there is a link from the microcosm to the macrocosm. Every little grain on this planet is linked to the unive ... -
Gurudev, how do we know what is the right thing to do when there are so many choices? Also when all of them are equally good, how do I pick the right one?

Gurudev, I feel people don’t accept me because I am boring. What should I do?
