#Grief is a normal and natural response to loss, may be the loss of a loved one, may be the loss of dignity, relationship, loss of pet, loss of employment and so on.        I myself try to follow #healthygrieving not indulging in to be entangled by #unhealthygrieving , still sometimes specially in the blank evening ( no webinar, no online class) I yearn for her presence and what I do you know -- either I take a novel or story book and start concentrating in the story, or listen to music, the two were liked by my heart( wife) who is present in absence. In such a manner I transform negative unhealthy grieving to a positive healthy grieving. Today after the webinar and dinner, I am urged to pen my feelings which is the proper way of healing, sharing to you all, my friends.#Sharing_is_healing. Grieving is neither forgetting, nor drowning in the pool of tears. Grieving is the process of healing pain , of course, unique to every individual how to cope with. So I opine on my personal experien

Maa karmofaloheturbhurma te soghohostokormani.."     In Mahabhagavata Gita Lord Krishna advises Arjuna," you do your work , don't expect any result in return " .   " Expectation is the root of all heartache " --- William Shakespeare.     Why I am writing this, you know not. I honouring my platinum jubilee year of spring without my beloved Life partner, am sometimes in oblivion that expectation in return of being beside the needy persons is an yearning, but now I have made up my mind not to expect anything in return for my spontaneous open heart service from anybody, may be a terminal dying person, may be a close relative to enjoy the beauty of happiness within me, which is solely owned by me and handed over to the worshipping Goddess, ultimate realisation in me. This is common in human being to hanker after the co

 #GRIEF #elisabethkublerrossfoundation  #HealingthroughGrief       Yesterday the first session of education series" Healing through Grief" conducted by Elisabeth Kubler Ross Foundation has imbued me to pen my reflection and thought . In today's morning I have a conversation with the security guard of our complex who has been passing through the process of Grief for the last two years losing his wife who fought six years having undergone dialysis. I feel myself identical in some respects with the person. He is trying to cope with the grief. He has passed through Anticipatory Grief for six years  which is the " beginning of the end" in our minds." "Anticipatory grief is generally more silent than grief after a loss."--- Elisabeth Kubler Ross & David Kessler (On Grief and Grieving), the book I have been turning over the pages. The bereaved person tells me that he recalls the happy moments of touring to Puri which comforts him . He still feels the

#WorldCancerDay2022  ##Close_the_Care_gap #cancerawareness  #cancerprevention              If you place the question on the world table," Do you have terror in mind knowing that you are diagnosed with cancer?" Except a very few, all will answer "yes". Though medical treatment is in advancing stage, the care gap still exists. It's estimated that 55 million people are drowned below poverty line due to high expense for the treatment. They are devoid of proper treatment. Herein lies the Care gap which must be equalised , the responsibility is shouldered on the government machinery. I have seen many patients of hands to mouth families take a voyage to the unknown world leaving the property account zero or in minus burdened with loans. New cases in india registered in 2020 is 800000. Mortality rate shows 7.3 per 1000 which is in declining graph.     One woman dies of cervical cancer every 8 minutes in India. For every 2 women newly diagnosed with breast cancer one wom

#birthdayofswamivivekananda  #spirituality  #palliativecare  #endoflifecare  #onenessofdivinity         On this very auspicious day mind goes beyond control. The preaching of Swami Vivekananda with special reference to religion and spirituality for the sake of mankind to treat a person as a whole serving humanity , motivating all to walk along the right path to seek happiness within self and make others happy with our compassionate heart. If I go deep down to the Ocean of Palliative Care, I can connect this with the philosophical thoughts of Swami Vivekananda.    " Illness is a spiritual event.It grasps persons by the soul and by the body and disturbs them both. It raises troubling questions of a transcendental nature...... about meaning, value and relationship."         Daniel P Sulmasy, Academic Medicine.     Spiritual relationship is the relationship of love , unconditional eternal love sometimes warm , sometimes cold in a waxing and waning manner. Spirituality in a broade
