We leave our print everywhere. We brush off our habits onto our children and grandchildren. We even connect with our cars and other belongings as we read at https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2022/08/stick-shift-manual-transmission-cars/671078/
We raise our children often to become another clone of us. We teach them morals and ethics. We teach them right and wrong. But Agathiyar tells us that there is no right or wrong. John Vampatella writes at https://www.cru.org/sg/en/train-and-grow/share-the-gospel/obstacles-to-faith/is-everything-relative.html,
"What may be right in one place and time may be wrong in another place and time. Or, what may be right in one culture at one time may be wrong in that same culture a short time later. It is up to the individual and/or society to determine the “rightness” or “wrongness” of something, and that can, and does, change from time to time."
Indeed as he says, "there is no absolute gauge of what is morally right or wrong, .." Everything is relative to one another.
Agathiyar tells us not to judge another for we shall never know the full story. At times these stories can go back to several past lives and even Yugas as we came to know them recently.
We are told that this world is an illusion. If this world is an illusion or maya then why is so much importance and detail given to material seeking and also one's spiritual seekings? We work so hard to accumulate wealth in the former and merits and siddhis in the latter.
We are asked to surrender to the divine so that he can execute his work without interference from us. Total surrender means accepting everything that comes along without interfering. It means going with the flow. Can we just watch a horror or crime take place right before our eyes? Can we turn away from looking at others' plight and suffering?

Then we have some good samaritans take on the responsibility of looking out for their fellow mates in trouble - what should be the responsibility of the governing bodies at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxbGmqfmfBE
I read through the blog https://tomaslau.com/blog/everything-is-relative and asked myself if I could ever remain indifferent to challenges and the surrounding. I guess we will only understand live fully on our deathbed for nothing can change further for good or for bad after death, can it?
