Even The Body Betrays You In The End
All your relationships are relative; there is no real relationship anywhere. Even your body is relative. This body too is a betrayal. How many relations are there of this betrayer, the body? You take care of this body everyday, you bathe it, you groom it and when you get a stomach, even if you tell it not to ache, it will. When one of your teeth start to hurt, it will make you cry. You brush them everyday for so many years and still they let you down. So everything is a betrayal.
If you do not secure your liberation having been born a human in the land of India and in a family of high cultural values, then you are doomed! Everything you do will go down the drain.

And if you tell his wife, 'Your husband is a very good man,' she will say, 'Do not mention his name to me, he is rotten.

I told her, 'I know what's bothering you. Why are you hiding things from me? When you shoved the teacup in front of him, even your husband understood. Let go of this deceit (kapat) if you want to be happy.'
Men are naive and they tend to forgive easily but women on the other hand hold on to the events; words their husbands said to them will remain fresh forty years later.

Women will get their work done through you, but you men do not know how to do the same with them.
If your wife wants to buy a saree worth one hundred
It is fine if people do not want liberation but everyone needs commonsense. People have conflict in their homes because of lack of commonsense. Not everyone trades in the black market do they? Nevertheless people are still so unhappy. In a home of just three people there will be countless disagreements and differences of opinions. What happiness can there be in this? Then people live in their own stubborn and insensitive ways. Of what use is life if you do not have any self-respect? A judge comes home after imposing a sevenyear jail sentence and yet at home his case of conflict with his wife remains pending for fifteen days. He does not speak with his wife.
