I’ve only experienced a very mild form of depression many years ago...but luckily I quickly snapped out of it....
My son’s girlfriend dumped him a month ago and less than a week ago, he got news that he didn’t make it to the national basketball team that would be playing in Myanmar in December. I was really worried of his state of mind and was watching out for signs of depression.
I think having a supportive older sister that’s gonna beat your coach up does help, huh?
Anyway, from my observation, my boy is doing well emotionally....and when I heard him laughed out loud when watching some comedy clips on YouTube yesterday, I know he’d be able to handle rejections in the future.
Prometheus, do you think it’d be better say, people who have had experienced depression and became well, guide those who are still battling it? At least they really know what or how is it like and be able to at least know what to do or what to say?
To go back to Godhead, you’d need to break the cycle of life and death or Sa?sara
The ultimate goal of life for every living entity is to go back Godhead, to reassume one's eternal loving relationship with the supreme personality of Godhead, to return to the place and position we have all come from. Over time, however, due to material allurement, attachment, and a desire to lord it over, or to "enjoy life" as masters rather than humble servants, we have left the spiritual world, and progressively become entangled in the material universe and all its sufferings. There are many steps we can take, in order to rekindle our love and eternal loving relationship with God. Remembrance, association, and purification are essential ingredients.
