In Limbo or an Impasse

[Jitendra Hydonus]

Many times in life we would like some kind of closure but relationships at times may just be in limbo or an impasse. We have no choice but to let it go. Because responding may be reactive. Life does not always have conclusive results. It may be years before we understand what happened to a relationship if we do at all. Fortunately sometimes friends give us suitable answers when those who should have may give us the silent treatment.

While seeing Amma she made the comment that those who give others the silent treatment and stick their nose up in the air actually have a form of mental illness. Sometimes we wonder about ourselves when this treatment is given to us, however we should realize that people do practice meanness and this kind of behavior is a result of being so wrapped up in ourselves and our ego that there is only one view; our own.

I have found that this is one of the most insightful statements Amma has ever said for my understanding.
