Self interest will wrap the Mind.:- The question that should be posed to those who deny the existence of God and who presume that they can achieve anything through personal efforts, are why then should there be success and failures or sorrow and happiness? No one will like to undergo privations, much less those who boast of their independent powers. But it can be seen that even such can foremasts cannot avoid misfortunes and calamities in their own families. Hence the presence of an unseen superior force has to be reckoned with.

All of us are His servants, committed to obey His commands. The joy or misery faced by us in the result of our past conduct. From this flows the usual doubt, why then should we cringe before God, if the law of past conduct (Karma कर्म) governs our acts? God makes us go through vicissitude condition our mind to be steadily both in the midst of happiness or ruffled by sorrows and ensures maintenance of a balance approach in our activities.

Worship enables us to bear difficulties without getting demoralized because success and failure are bound to alternate. God takes the role of a director of a puppet show manipulating the strings of the dolls from behind the screen. The Mahabharata (महाभारत) illustrates even the aster Bhishma, (भीष्म) bestowed with a boon to die only when he so desired, faltering and getting into a trap, resulting in antagonizing a person, who ultimately caused his death.

The havoc brought by a woman when she was badly let down by Bhishma भीष्म. A woman when may be compared to water in a reservoir. Just as it gushes out when the bank breaks, she feels secure so long as her husband protect her out when she is denied this protection, she feels deeply heart.

Enounce of the Gita (गीता) is reflected in the life of Gandhari (गांधारी), that self interest and attachment warps the mind. A woman of rare distinction, she chooses to keep her eyes closed with a bandage because her husband was blind. But she underwent total transformation as days passed because of her affection towards her children.
