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.ย
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.

Last night I had a dream that lasted for a very long time, but I remember a little bit. I was writing something, and I had a photo of Shiva near me, then suddenly there was a very loud roar, and that photo turned into a living Mother who had two faces, one behind the other, who was fair in colour, and from her face her tongue was sticking out. ๐๐๐ป๐ฑ๐ฅ๐ชท[…]
The Mother is revealing to you that She is Shiva and Gauri and Kali and Hanuman and all the gods besides whom one worships.

Please define the majesty of Lord Shiva and also explain the reason behind Hindus taking their religion so lightly and many a time insulting their own religion during Ganesh pooja and Durga pooja. ๐ฅน๐๐ป๐ป[…]
Shiva defies definition since he is the great liberator. He liberates us not only from ignorance but also from form. He is the essence of

I used to and still adore Shiva and Vishnu so much. But I was never attracted or fond of Feminine Gods like Maa Parvati, or Maa Lakshmi, or Maa Saraswati – but the respect and love for them was always there and equal. ๐ฉ๐ผโ๐ฆฐ๐ชป๐บ๐ชท[…]
It is because of the prominent place that the masculine aspect of the One Divine that has been given in tradition. Number of hymns to

Recently, I heard that people who visit Baba Dham (Baidyanath Dham, Deoghar, Jharkhand), take ganja as prasad of Shiva Ji. I felt so bad that Hindus have made a mockery of their religion. Instead of understanding Lord Shiva, the Adiyogi, people have limited Him to their pleasure and linked Him to bhang and ganja. ๐ฑ๐๐[…]
Yes, it is painful to see that the once mighty Aryan culture and Sanatana Dharma have reduced itself to such absurdities. It is painful to

Da, I saw your YouTube video on the topic of the subconscious mind. I understand it. Feel it. And I would like to know how to stop my subconscious and conscious mind from overthinking. ๐๐ฅ๐ป[…]
Death is never a sweet thing unless one is conscious of the Divine. We are here to progress through all the challenges of life. But

I have been listening to your discourse on the Bhagavatam every Tuesday. I wanted to ask you if there is any particular translation of the Bhagavatam that you recommend? Secondly, I understand that Sri Aurobindo translated a portion of it. In which book of Sri Aurobindo can I find those translations? ๐๐ช๐
I am referring to the standard complete Two Volume set of the Srimadabhagawatam.
The translated portion is in the volume on Translations.

Thank you for your previous response regarding the Mind and Consciousness. Could you please explain how to differentiate between the two? I would appreciate further clarification on how to identify which aspects of my personality belong to the Mind and which belong to Consciousness. ๐๐๐ป๐ป
Consciousness is a fundamental fact. Mind is only an instrument built by Consciousness to express itself in ways that are tangible. For example, as the

Many people say that people in India do not follow their traditions as strictly as they once did, and that there is growing resistance, especially among the younger generation, toward maintaining cultural practices. ๐ฅฎ๐ฏ๏ธ[…]
I am not sure about China and Japan of today. There is a general decline in culture everywhere and it is not without its purpose.

Last night I had a dream that I remember a little bit. I go to sleep, and I wake and go somewhere and then. I come back, turn on the light and there are snakes all over the floor, coiled up, and I walk slowly and carefully so as not step on them. ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฅ๐[…]
Good. Sign of overcoming your fears with the help of the Divine Presence.

Bande Mataram Dada. In the ‘Evening Talk with Sri Aurobindo’ book, Page No. 129, 21 January 1925, Sri Aurobindo replied, “For doing this yoga he has to decide finally what he intends to do when he goes out of Jail.” About which jail, He has mentioned, is the questioner in the jail, or anything symbolic? ๐๐คโค๏ธโ๐ฅ
It is about the disciple who was in jail at that time, possibly Sudhir Kumar Sarcar.

For me, my mind is my consciousness. I guess this is not true. Can you please explain the difference between Mind and Consciousness in simple words? ๐คฏ๐ซ๐ป
Consciousness very simply means awareness plus the power to act. We can use the term knowledge and will. The question is whether animals and plants

I feel the main impediment in my Sadhana is sexual thoughts, which definitely arise sometimes during the day. I am trying to remember the mother to reject them, but then I am getting very strong and vivid sexual dreams. What should I do? ๐ฃ๐ฆ
Sexual urge is very strong at your age, – in fact at all ages since it is deeply rooted in the body’s biology. At your

I am quoting from your answer: “This implies a constant practice of equanimity as well as a complete faith in the Divine that whatever is needed will come.” – You mean to say then one need not even think of his bodily needs, like eating, drinking, and a place for living, a sleeping bed, health care, etc., if one has complete faith. ๐ฅธ๐ฆ๐ป[…]
The Gita, speaks to sarvasankalpasannyasi and Yogakshemavahamyaham. These are not mere words or hollow promises. At least such has been the experience of those who

I am not sure what to do. Mother has been working on my body for it to get pregnant for such a long time. We tried naturally for the last 5 years and finally we went for IVF and now even that has failed. Sometimes my attitude is not right, sometimes my body. ๐คฐ๐ผ๐ฆ๐ฐ[…]
The Divine is not there to fulfil our ignorant desires. Why push and force our ignorant will on God, who knows much better than us

What if the desire to hold on โ the attachment โ isnโt rooted in pride or the need to show ownership, but rather in a deep sense of care? A quiet protectiveness, born not from materialism, but from love. What if itโs not about clinging to possessions, but about holding close the people who matter most โ not out of selfishness, but from the fear of loss?๐ค๐ผโจ[…]
Yes, attachment and care are not necessarily a negative movement. They are indeed a form of Sattwic love which is certainly higher than the gross

Why do I feel a massive weight in all of my nerves mind and body when I read Sri Aurobindo even for a single page, a single page of a poem like Ilion or a single page of Synthesis of Yoga or the Life Divine as if this pouring out from a too vast a source and I cannot hold it, this unease doesn’t even come when I sit down with any of my tough academic books. ๐ตโ๐ซ๐ซฃ๐ ๐ป[…]
What Sri Aurobindo is giving us is a complete roadmap, the entire truth, the broad idea and the total landscape of the human evolutionary journey

I fully understand the difference in the Goal and Execution of the Integral Yoga, as I keep discovering my true passion for Service to the Divine.ย Also, I understand that it’s fully on one’s own True Aspiration and need. ๐๐๐ปโค๏ธโ๐ฅโจ[…]
Yes, your thoughts are flowing in quite the right direction. Copying something from the Mother which resonates.

Alok da, in one of the YouTube videos, I heard someone mention that the Kalyan was over, and that too in 2012. But what I read online about it differs. Can you help me understand this? Thank you, Alok da. ๐๐๐ป๐
Perhaps you mean Kaliyuga? Yes if we go by Sri Aurobindo and the Mother the manifestation of the New Creation which is the Truth-Creation literally,
