hey Jitendra ! 

life is about learning lessons

do it wrong the first time ~

learn from the lesson and remember 

do it right the next time 

Yes i agree Flying Squirrel. Yet sometimes it takes a long time and much personal commitment and energy with people till u find out the significance of a relationship. i believe we can all attest to that. Some of our initial hunches often end up right in the end. i think it is very important to meet people before getting involved with them in a close relationship and recently that point was proven to me very strongly. Brother Bhaktananda told me once that people should spend time together, in a physical sense, who feel close to one another. This is important while considering relationships of any sort on the internet, phone or mail. i should have followed my hunch/intuition. i realize that it is difficult to meet some people because of the distance. Yet where there is a will a way manifests and from this happening we can understand the dynamics we have with others. ~ 'Learn from the lesson and do it right the next time.'

i remember Amma saying some thing relating to this: We should have the courage to tell our mistakes. It sets a good example for others. Love of the body which is tangible is very limited. That love can b destroyed very easily. Mind and emotions are also very low. Devotion is higher. It requires honesty, dedication and enthusiasm to gain love.
