Earlier today I was reading an article in the newspaper how the Ansals have surrendered themselves after their anticipatory bail was cancelled. As per the case they are being held responsible along with two managers for a fire that broke out in a cinema hall and claimed almost 50 lives.
The case and its proceedings are not what interests me and is not what this post is about. Apparently after years of waiting, the Ansals have been arrested. What is a psychological case study is the remark from the relative of one of the deceased in the tragedy that now the souls of the dead can rest in peace.
From a purely bystander standpoint, it fails comprehension that the Ansals going to jail is now responsible for the peaceful passage of the souls of the dead. This represents so much negative energy that such a situation causes.
Similarly, the untimely/unexpected death of a patient causes aggrieved relatives to take out the frustration on the doctors. There is a human element involved of pain, hurt, anger, frustration and rage at not being able to play God. Not having the power to give life. Most people could pick up a weapon and take the life of another person or through negligence do the equivalent, however no one has the power to give life.
There is a need to understand the psyche of the relatives of the victims and counsel them as the amount of negativity in their mind after numerous years would affect them adversely. The pain, anguish and hurt you feel at the loss of a loved one never goes away, but with time you learn to deal with it and cope with it, and doing so is not disrespectful to the memory of that person. As long as the person is in your heart and mind, it does not mean that you cannot live your life or you cannot smile or cannot be happy, in most cases the deceased person would want you to be as normal as possible.
Keep your peace of mind. Amen.

I agree with your thoughts on what the relatives feel when the closed ones are in a critical situation facing death
