This week, Krishna Das responds to questions on:

• What Maharaj-ji said about service to our parents
• Praying for people from afar and working through traumas
• Freeing our parents from their karmas
• Doing healing work on our own hearts
• Detaching from the ego and loving the soul instead of the role
• Seeing the boundless love and purity in everyone
• How negative mind-states can block us from sensing the guru
• How trying to hold onto pleasant feelings causes more suffering
• Maintaining equanimity no matter what we are receiving from the outside world

“While your parents are alive, if possible, one should try to release the negative energy in that relationship somehow. It’s something that we’ll carry with us for our whole lives and we will be hurt by those emotional knots within us.” – Krishna Das
