in the past 5 month I have been taking care of my parents outside of the country who are both sick. I was away from my own families and work. I tried so hard to practice bestowing towards my parents, I only found myself hurt mentally and physically. I know this is the time to pray for the light to lift me to another capacity level. my questions are: 1. how do I know the light is working on me? 2. will this practice of bestowing put me at a position of being taken advantage by others (even my own parents). I guess the 2nd question shows my “will to receive” nature but before I have the equivalence of form, how do I balance things? thank you very much!
What do you tell your parents who are in their mid-80’s and going through some health issues, who have no religious background and knows very little about “God”, the meaning of their life at this stage? since in their eyes (and in most people’s eyes), what’s left are mostly sufferings and little hope?
