Dear Indiramma,
I can understand your situation very well. But remember the story of Poonthanam Namboothiri who could say,
“Unnikrishnan manassil kalikkumbol unnikal mattu venamo makkalai?”.
That is the acceptance and surrender of the true devotee.
Remember your childhood; did you have this daughter then? So, before she was born, YOU were there. There are so many mothers grieving like you and you are not worried about their lost children. Why? It is called the “My”ness – which is an illusion only.
Understand, each mind is bound by its cycle of Karma and births and deaths. It has no choice there and your Karma made you suffer this Karmaphalam. Now, accept it as God’s will. Instead of thinking about the loss, think how you can make others happy by spreading this Knowledge. Learn Geeta, Bhagavatham and so on, and take classes for children, feeling that they are your own children.
World needs you and your support. Before your mind leaves your body (which is definite to happen for every one here), try to enrich it as much as possible. Let the rest of your life be a guiding light for all others.
My prayers and blessings are with you,
HariOm!
