Farewell Mrs. Lal
July 5th, 2008
I just found out from my Father that our old time neighbor, Capt. Lal’s wife Mrs. Lal aka Lal Aunty passed away in sleep last night (Saturday, IST). There are many fond memories to cherish and look back as everyone bids her adieu while she makes her way to ‘life after life’. Since 1989, we have been neighbors with Lal Uncle and Aunty at Rohtak, and I hope Lal Sahib gains enough courage to manage her absence. A bond of 60 odd years is certainly impossible to fill. May her soul make a peaceful journey to the next phase.
I bid farewell to Lal Aunty.
Death is a solemn experience, a change from which no one can escape.

Spirit is just a speck of the Universal Spirit called God is indestructible like energy which is pervading everywhere in the Universe. Death gives an opportunity to renew itself. So, with renewed vigour the spirit in another form do better things elsewhere! All get this opportunity due to inevitable death one day! Therefore, the departed soul will be in a better position than now!

His tragedy is compounded because only 11 hours prior to the demise his wife had gone to her daughter’s residence at Gurgaon for treatment of some chest ailment. Well that is the way life operates; leaves no debts behind. It has to extract the last ounce before releasing its grip.
Today, after the crowded 10 days of mourning, Lal Sahib will be left all alone in the huge house with everyone leaving and going to lead their respective lives.
And I know for sure he will cry till he gets drained of energy to cry any further. .
