old age home in india?

Question

Day in day out, i think of starting old age home in india, may be because of guilty feeling. now this desire has become strong.
All of us spent our entire life making money.... for our children, without knowing our own end. what will be our satisfaction when we go.
i want to start big and require about 10 acres of land.

Answer 1

Well its good to hear about ur sense of responsibility towards the oldies. But i would simply advice u to look after ur parents well untill they r alive. The smiles on ur parents faces would give you more satisfaction than any other old age home would.

Answer 2

If you start with guilt I dont think you will end up doing what you really started off with!

You have a brillant idea! Dont let a guilt feeling govern it! Make up your mind to do a service with the intention of purely loving God in mind and nothing else.

Land will be available in plenty, if you want to convert your desire into ambition. And please never think of what will become to us when we die stuff!

I spend a hell of a lot on my child, yet I never think of how I will be taken care of when I am old! My duty as a parent is to care for my child whom God has given in my custody! I dont expect anything in return, neither from my parents (as inheritance) or from my child.

all the best
