We know of so many people who are facing impossible situations and problems and they are helpless. They do not know what to do or whom to ask.
This is a dedicated site for those who are searching for answers, who want to break from their present repeating circles of life and looking for answers that will understand them, help them find a new way-a new solution towards life beautiful and Divine.
As a psychiatrist, you certainly possess profound insight into psychology. There is a strong reason for saying this: the essays you have written on the Bhagavad Gita transcend the mere label of “spirituality.” Although psychology and the Bhagavad Gita may seem to deal with contrasting subjects, my understanding is that the Gita serves as a treatise on duty—delivered by Sri Krishna to dispel Arjuna’s mental frailty. I would be grateful if you could kindly answer the following question.
Thank you for your kind words. The Gita is a most wonderful gospel of works ever written. But the idea of works, as far as
Alok da, I have a question. Earlier, I used to feel that if I had worked on something, I should make sure people knew about it, because the person assigning the work should also know what I contributed in order to evaluate me properly. 💼🧑🏼💼❤️🔥🌼[…]
It is best to leave the result in the hands of the Divine. Self promotion is a bad policy in the long run. It feeds
I am a woman entering into my 30s. Since a small kid, I remember growing up among mostly male cousins. So much so that I used to be a tomboy. I grew up among female classmates and have had mostly female friendships. 👩🏼❤️🔥🌼[…]
Being a Tomboy or experiencing protective feelings as well as comparisions with other women does not suggest that one is a lesbian or a bisexual.
I wanted to share two Dreams that I had today: where I was in an open, dry, yellowish forest space… felt like Auroville, and suddenly there were many birds that came in front of us (me, my brother, and one more person). 💭🕊️🐆🚘🛌🏼💤[…]
The rainbow birds seem to be various desires and the leopard is a force that wants to devour you cunningly. Most likely it is fear.
I have the aspiration to sacrifice for the Mother or someone whom I love. But sacrifice implies danger, right? How can wanting to sacrifice and being safe go together? How will one know one is on the right path and not going in the wrong direction in the name of sacrifice? 🙄🫴🏼🌼🦋
Sacrifice does not diminish oneself. It purifies us of all that is small and low and obscure by burning it in the flame of aspiration.
At what evolutionary stage in the journey of a particular Soul does the call for Yoga come? 🙂❤️🔥🌼
It is not something fixed but generally one can say that the call for yoga comes when the soul has reached a point of development
After a month of abstaining from tobacco, I again tried it just out of curiosity, three times. After doing so, I felt intense repulsion from the system, especially the physical body. 🚬🤧😊❤️🔥🌼[…]
Yes it is a Grace indeed and there is no need to challenge or resist the Grace by trying it again.
I have recently discovered that fear is the worst vice I have. I think it is my shadow. In my daily life, I don’t run away from challenges, but sometimes, due to fear and anxiety, I am not able to do my work as well as possible. 😟🌸🦋[…]
Fear stems from the sense of loneliness, the extreme sense of loneliness that comes when one feels due to separation from the Divine. Its antidotes
If I have understood you correctly, the world in Sri Aurobindo’s vision is not a standardised moral machine with uniform laws, but a stratified evolutionary field in which different forces, levels of consciousness, motives, and degrees of preparedness interact under distinct operative principles. 🤔❤️🔥🌄🪷[…]
It is not a question of threshold. The Grace does not wait for evil to cross a threshold to act. If it did so then
Is subconscient a part of our brain? 🧠🤔🌼🦋
The brain is only a physical instrument. It stores imprints and the various sensory and other perceptions as you store things in a room. You
I had not said that the Supramental Yoga of Transformation would create a massive movement or religion, but the Masters or Saints who came before him would create it. 🛕🙂🙏🏻🪷[…]
There is no doubt some truth in what you have felt, leaving aside the external expression of it.
People could not hold the tremendous power
It’s during the COVID lockdown that I’ve developed a philosophical curiosity and somehow got introduced to the writings of Sri Aurobindo, which I’ve been exploring intellectually ever since, but there’s always this sense of something missing. 🙁🙏🏻🪷❤️🔥[…]
Now that you have understood that it is humility that opens the doors to knowledge. In fact when the mind becomes quiet then true knowledge
The only way we are taught to learn Gratitude is by counting the things that we have to be grateful for, our health, our families, well-wishers, the comfortable standard of living, etc. and comparing ourselves with the people who have less than us, who have more hardship, more challenges. 🙄🙏🏻🪷🦋[…]
These methods obviously don’t work because their focus is only on the material life and outer existence. And as any even slightly sensitive person will
My 10-year-old son once asked me, “Maa ko sab bhagwan kyo kahte hai, wo to hamare jaise hai na? [Why do we call Mother God if she is like us?]”. I couldn’t answer this. 🙋🏼♂️❔🙂🙏🏻🪷
His question comes from the truth of appearances. So the first thing that we need to explain is that things that look similar are not
To look for your videos on Love, which are on the YouTube Channel ‘Auromaa’, whenever I feel my love(may be attachment), whatever it is, is turning towards blame, criticism.. To not feel that I have been betrayed, to feel that the other side must have reasons for doing what he is doing, and when I see videos on Love, Sacrifice, Self-Giving, I feel a little relieved for some time… 💖😊🙏🏻🌼[…]
But there always is true love in everybody. But it is covered by the smoke of desires, clouds of doubt and the curtains of ignorance
Dear Sir, I am currently in a bad situation. It has given me mental stress, anxiety, etc. It is not something major, it is usual household problems and an alcoholic father, though I am facing the problem like head-on, like a warrior. 💔🍷😣❤️🔥🌸[…]
Alcohol of course is no option for anyone. Medication can be taken if it helps you maintain a calmer state. It will not come in
Could you please guide me on the root of fear and insecurity? I notice that even in small situations, such as meeting my boss or speaking to someone in authority, I become nervous, fearful, and lack confidence. 😥👥🌸🦋[…]
Root of fear and insecurity is the instinct of self-preservation in the ego.
With the steady practice of surrender to the Divine and trust
I heard in one of your Savitri audios about Bramhand nirmiti. You said that first Sat Chid Anand. Then four lokas, then their Lokpals. They plunge into inconscient and become matter, asat, powerless, and Chaitya, respectively. 🌌😊🙏🏻🪷🌄[…]
Mind came out of the Supermind, the Maharloka or Vigyanamaya Kosha of the ancient Vedic terminology. In a very simple way one can say that
