[Smt. Chhanda Chandra asked: Swami, please clear my doubt. In the 6 chakras, it is told that the very first Chakra is the Muladhara Chakra which represents the bond with the mother. The second one is Manipura, which is the bond with the father. Like this, six chakras are represented in the body in the upward direction. Swami, does it mean that the bond with the father is more strong than the bond with the mother? If so then why? Is it not the reverse? At Your divine lotus feet, Chhanda Chandra.]
Swami replied: Your question shows that you are innocent like a new born baby. What is the use of calculating the strengths of various hurdles in the spiritual journey to reach God? When you are travelling from Mumbai to Hyderabad, will you compare all the in-between stations? If you compare, what is the ultimate use of such comparison in your spiritual journey? You tell me an answer for this point, then I will tell which bond is stronger between the bonds of parents. When all bonds have to be crossed, there is no use of the comparison between bonds.
