Parents Are Not Gods.

From a very young age, people in South Asia believe that their parents are like gods because they gave birth to them and did their best to raise them. Little kids love their parents the most, especially their moms. They do love their dads, but they talk to their moms more about their feelings than their dads. In some cases, in the position of mother, children are closer to their fathers as well.

As of right now, some of people believe that my parents are gods without them, I wouldn't be here or who I am now. Also, if you ask someone, “Ok! I understand that you have a deep affection for your parents, particularly your mother or father. However, how do you justify your affection? The majority of individuals will respond, "Because she gave me birth. she is the reason I am here."

It’s fair enough and logical at the same point. We frequently hear, however, "My parents are gods because they gave birth to me, fed me, did this, did that, and so on and so forth." And similar stuff. Also in Hinduism, it is also stated, “Parents are god.”

As of right now, only those who have positive relationships with their parents will say something like what I have written above. It’s not necessary that everyone have a good relationship with parents. In this case, I'm not saying that the parents' mistake is the only reason the relationship is bad . It's also possible that the kids don't understand the bond. Look, it's not necessary, to be honest, to have a good relationship with everyone. We all function on different energy frequencies at different times, even though we belong to the same family. We have good relations with those who have a similar kind of vibration, like us—in Gen Z terms, vibe matching.

Couple of time, people blame children for not having good relationship with parents. Sometime parents also gets blamed for it.

Sometimes, kids say to their parents, "If you can't give me this or provide this for me, then why did you give birth to me?" or "Because you, I am suffering." This is especially hard for parents who are having a hard time with money. and the comprehension level of children. I'm not saying that all children whose parents struggle financially mention these things, some are sympathetic and make an effort to help. We can see both of the example.

Parents who are having a hard time with money aren't the only ones this case applies to. It also applies to people who give everything but just dialogue changes, but the feeling of disappointment is still there. When children gradually come to believe that their "parents are gods," they begin to feel disappointed in them.

Which they are taught from childhood, like in childhood parents give things or give their best to provide things which their child provide, children minds thinks so, whatever i wish these can provide, like we have imagination of god in our head. Also, some parents can’t provide all things which what their children provide, in childhood where other kids get things and they don’t they have some disappointment developed from the childhood.

We have certain disappointments going on from childhood toward the parents. As we grew up, we had some distance from our parents. We store grudges over them, and sometimes this disappointment is so high teenagers majorly say, “Why did you give birth to me if you can’t provide for me?” These things lead parents into stress where they question themselves, and at some point they agree that despite  trying their best, they couldn’t give their best to their child. Indirectly, by these things, we are giving guilt to parents. And always remember that any disease first starts at the mental plane, then its manifestation in the physical body happens. It’s not only because of food that in old age the majority of parents get diabetes, thyroid problems, high blood pressure, or ulcers. It’s because of guilt that they stored over the period of time. it’s not only because children give them guilt, but also sometimes parents self-sabotage themselves thinking, I've done my best for my child. They can also have some guilt regrets about their past, not only because of childhood guilt or grudges. And this disease part applies to all of us.

My only purpose in writing this article is not to challenge someone's faith, belief, or love toward their parents. My sole objective is just to treat them as human. Humans make mistakes, all of us. And parents are also human, they will make mistakes. Some circumstances made them do that, the majority of parents want the best for their child. When you give them the title of god, you don’t expect mistakes from them or disappointment from them. You will say, “How can they do this to me?” “They should have done this.” “Because of my parents, I'm suffering.” Some people might have gone through such situations that you and I never thought of. They might be parents as well. Parents never share pain with their children, like, Look, to get you this, I've done this, you have to treat me like God. When you stop treating them like God, you accept their flaws and mistakes like they did yours.

Just Forgive them, yeah, some of you might have gone through much dark cause one of parents, till Forgive them, let me them free. Not for them for yourself, don’t cage yourself there. Forgive them, move on.This single handedly will help you much as nothing else.

Hari om tat sat.
