WHY I AM GETTING SCARED WHEN EVERYTHING IS GOING FINE?

WHY I AM GETTING SCARED WHEN EVERYTHING IS GOING FINE?

This is typical psychological tendency one can observe in old generation,especially in relation to a new born or young child when a grandma or mother follows the rite of removing effect of an evil eye on the child.

Though this is more prevalent in Indian culture, I think it may be a natural feeling of  caring and loving mothers and grandmothers all over the world.

A loving mother always has this feeling that her baby is very cute, how it smiles, how it responds to her, how healthy it looks, and so on.  Even when she is busy in other household works, her mind is always preoccupied by her baby. A feeling dominates her of how fortunate she is to have such beautiful baby, her husband, her family,  so  happy and ideal life she is having that people are envious of her. Even she finds her to be  envious of herself. And at such moment she gets scared, that she may lose her fortune at any moment and perhaps  she will be the most  miserable one at next moment.

In such cases, the old lady in the family or neighborhood advises her to perform the rite of removing effect of an evil eye on the child by applying a black spot of collyrium  on the cheek of the child below the neck. 

And wow, there it is ! The fantastic result in that the mother gets psychological relief, she has no worries any more, and continue to cherish the divine opportunity of having a cute lovely child. 

The rite reflects the pure love and care a grandma or mother has towards the child.

Similar rite is performed when a newly wed couple is entering the house on first occasion.

Psychologically,the very act of the rite gives tremendous relief to the performer.

When one feels that things right now are too good to believe to be true and at the same time gets scared of probability of something bad will happen, one really gets restless. And try to look for solutions.

One must take all rational and practical precautions possible towards maintaining and enjoying the fortune of having good things in life. Besides, one may contemplate on how to do this?

The effective way out is believe strongly in the theory of karma ie do good and get good.

Do no harm and get no harm.

Pray for universal peace and love.

Pray for welfare and happiness to all.

Pray for prosperity of all.

And lead and live life peacefully.
