I agree with you, but here it is physical loneliness not spiritual loneliness.

Nita lot of older folks aren't able to make that transition into vridhha avastha spiritually hence reason of mental suffering imo.

I remembering one Quote , though I totally forget where I heard , but I really like it

"Train yourself to let go everything you fear to lose."?

What do you think about this philosophy?

Easier said than done 😊 And I am not talking about the material world. I like my creature comforts and work hard for them, but I can live without them. However, how can one train oneself to let go of family, friends, people they love? We all know death is inevitable, yet how many of us are prepared to accept the inevitability? My grandmother used to say that before a person is about to lose someone close to him/her (through death), that person's heart turns hard as iron; or else human beings would not be able to bear the death of a close one.

no bahni. i don't agree with this. no matter how hard you turn your heart to be, you still grieve the loss of a dear one...u still grieve the loss of a great relationship. somethings...u just get used to living w/o. time heals the wounds and life goes on because most of us have other relations, other near and dear ones to take care of. so there's really no other way out to bear the death of a closed one and still go on with one's life😊

Let me clarify that - I was talking about the time of someone's death. Maut ki khabar ka sadmaa bardasht karne ke liye dil lohey ka ho jaata hai, nahin to insaan wahin khatam ho jaye. I was talking about the shock, not the grief. 😊

.....and i'm saying kee waheen khatm ho jana is not even an option for most as they have other near and dear ones to think about too. that's why people bear the shock...but that's just my opinion😊

I was talking about the shock, not the grief. 😊

yeah, i got u there.

What I wrote was I guess people's way of explaining the same 😊 I missed writing out an important part in my first post. Nani kehtee theen ki Allah marney waaley ke dilon ko sakht kar deta hai nahin to insaan bardasht na kar paaye 😛
