Dear Swamiji, We have several relatives who are self centered and speaks only of their family… My family taught us that it’s inappropriate to talk about ourselves…They always used us for their needs.since we can’t avoid or runaway from our relatives how can we handle them…In what way should our thinking be changed to accept such crooked people

We can never control what is outside us, but we can decide to what extend we involve with those entities. The world is very big and there is space for everyone. Since family is not our choice, we have to be able to see what is positive about them and ignore/ avoid the negatives. If the involvement itself becomes hurtful, you can chose to stay away from them too. Our value systems have established ways in which family relations need to be maintained. That is why we say putradharmam, Sahodaradharmam, Bhartrudharmam, Matrudharmam etc. Meaning, maintaining relations a certain way is a Dharmic duty. If everyone understands and follows such rules, beyond selfish interest, family relations will be awesome. Hari Om.
