Sacrifice is the key to Truth

The Gita tells us about the impermanent nature of the body. The body alone dies but the soul is eternal. Why should we worry so much about these perishable bodies? If we lose this one we will get another. Our present relatives will not be coming with us after our death. Why should we be so very attached to them who are only transient? This attachment is the cause for Vishaadam, sorrow or confusion. Through deep devotion towards God, we can overcome this sadness.
