Swamiji, I had been reading some of your books recently and that evoked an interest in me to know more about Bhagavatham. I need some guidance regarding some matters. My question is if we are to aim for moksha and we have to practice detachment in life, what should our attitude be towards the poor people ( beggars and the like) ? Should we show concern to them or should we avoid them? If we show concern, would it be against the principle ? Another thing i would like to ask is all the rituals we perform for the dead. Is that required? Kindly guide.

Dear Radhika,
In reality no one is beggar.
Beggars and poor people expect sympathy from others.Everyone can become mentally rich provided if they turn towards GOD.
See the example of Kuchela.
When you do DHAANAM and PINDAM that is your service to the society and respect towards the elders.
HARI OM
