PSYCHE of Kisa Gotami
—– ( Before, it may better read the previous post [ Word — or Run ] first, for continuity sake ) —–
A Buddhist who is practicing many years, asked me about a direct transmission to Kisa Gotami.
Wasn’t that, a kind of spiritual revelation, inspiration did hit her ?
He is always inclines to a spiritual mysticism as he came to the Buddhism from New Age fascination.
Though, I don’t take a stance in Mystical Spiritualism. It got to be clearly logical and scientific,
save the last remaining unknowable in the extreme front. ( And unexplainable 8150 story 🙂 )
” I think, it was rather common psychological process. Her grief got worn-out, while finding out
the facts that everybody is having the bereavement of loved one, yet this is what the life is ”
” If you see hundreds of facts which telling you only one truth, on the end you got to accept it as the truth.
And if you try to know with your effort again and again, your body and your subconscious learns
that It is the inescapable Truth. Once you came to this state, the fresh grief and its feelings gone.
A fresh emotion never stays fresh for ever. As its says, the time is the best consolation.
In the case of Kisa Gotami, this process of time had accelerated into one day.
Since running around whole village all day, she must be physically exhausted, and when she came back
and sat down before Buddha, she must felt real brake and a rest. Child had gone but a grief too.
Buddha didn’t do any magic. It was a very effective spot on advice and the Practical Solution.

Later she became a bhikkuni ( nun ) and joined the followers of Buddha —– its mean, her husband lost
not only a child but a wife as well. Poor man.
I’m sympathetic to her husband as well” 😀
