Man grieves because
he has developed attachment
towards the unreal.
He cultivates an unreasonable
affection for wealth; but he is prepared
to sacrifice the riches in order to save the lives of his children,
for attachment to children is stronger than
to the wealth he has earned.
But, the same man stoops so low
as to neglect his children when the choice
is between his survival and his children's welfare.
However, the bliss that one gets
when he dwells on the Atma, the source
and spring of all joy is unbounded and imperishable.
That is the real joy.
