Hi Swati,😊

Your post is most insightful and educative...and the essence of it reminded me of an old African proverb-If you want to walk fast ,walk alone ;If you want to walk far, walk together.

Walking fast may bring in immediate short term and superficial profit but one will miss the enriching life experiences on the way which will culminate in wholesome abiding success while walking with others in unity.

The anatagonists in IKRS chose the fast paced strides to temporary success by walking alone, only bothered about their selfish motives and gain...In all their plans of destructions they took the help of one another but the ultimate motive was entirely selfish personal gain...there was no concern for the well being of others in their scheming ways. and the end result is that they failed big time!- betrayed by their evil partners in crime. Their greatest failure came from their lack of understanding as to what true unity means.

As you pointed out intelligently-On the face the members of AN seemed to be living in unity under one roof but DT and KT were bent on outdoing each other in the power game. If there is an enemy within the enemies outside have a field day...taking advantage of a house divided, manipulators like Kamini were successful in breaking in causing absolute chaos in the family.

I also loved the way you contrasted the life lead by the inhabitants of TVA with those in AN to bring home your point.The widows of Tarini Ashram proved that even the weak become strong when they are united...Not united by blood ties but bonds cemented by love, and care they symbolized what true unity meant and that to lead a rich life money is not of primary importance...In family life love is the lubricant that eases all the friction. The widows may have perished due to the vile machinations of the evil doers but they have ultimately won by being immortal in our hearts as the epitome of what is good and pure in life.

Be happy and healthy ,dear. Be surrounded with love , peace and unity in life always.😊

C'mon Mag...you should write more..maybe a FF or your analysis of ISHQ as a short series...

Hello Zady , good to see you, thank you for reading and sharing your view...True a family can either be one's biggest strength or one's weakness. You have rightfully pointed out by saying whatever one learns from one's family they follow it throughout their life, Viplav has learned so many good principles from his dadi and he luckily didn't get bad qualities from his dada or from his mother. Dadi has always been his biggest support in AN and he does implement many things he learned from her. Till then take care.

Hello Sudha, good to see you, thank you for reading and sharing your view ...What my English is not so bad 😆 just kidding, thank you dear. True Viplav throughout the series found a family outside AN. Unity was always found in Ashram or in Colony people, which was very much lacking in AN due to their own selfishness & greed like Mag has rightly pointed out.

The ashram or colony people worked together to sort out their issues. You rightfully point out Viplav never belonged to AN khandaan which is just for name sake. Thank you for your response dear, yes health is my first priority. Till then take care.
