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 an aspirant on the Integral Yoga path, I am struggling with the application of Truthfulness in a delicate relationship. My partner, who has suffered past hurt due to my former actions, asks radical questions about whether my spiritual practice means I would forgive those who commit extreme atrocities against her or our future child. 👨🏻🪷👩🏻[…]
This has been answered by Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Krishna in the Gita and elaborated in great length by Sri Aurobindo through numerous letters as well
During a recent visit from my parents, I struggled to convey Sri Aurobindo and the Mother’s teachings to my action-focused, property-oriented father, raising the question of why transmitting subtle spiritual ideas to an intellectually capable mind can remain so difficult. 👨🏻👩🏻👧🏻👦🏻😣🥀🌾[…]
Yes, it is my general observation that the present generation, for all its other difficulties, is more open towards the spiritual life. It believes in
At first glance, French statesman General Charles de Gaulle and Indian mystic Sri Aurobindo seem like an unlikely pair, yet both shared a profound, almost spiritual devotion to their nations’ destinies. 🗺️😊🙏🏻🌼[…]
Thanks for the interesting parallels between the spiritual nationalism of Sri Aurobindo and Charles de Gaul. Sri Aurobindo did regard him as a divine instrument
The World is not so simple, straightforward, or ideal. Why is it so? 🙄🌍🌌
We can mind our own business but many times in my experience people have come knocking to destroy things, situations, relations.
Last night, I had a symbolic dream whose exact meaning I couldn’t decipher. In front of me were two huts, completely covered in dust. Even the utensils inside the huts were dusty. From one of the huts, a woman came out and said, “I’ll serve food; eat it.” 👵🏻🛖⛳📱[…]
It is a dream in the lower vital world, which is the centre where food, sex, etc originate. …
Can we realize through meditative experiences that the centers controlling language are located on the left side? Specifically, is it possible to have such an experience when we feel a vibration-like pressure in that area on the left side during this yoga practice? 🧘🏻♂️🌻🦋
One can become aware of the organs and their function, can even see them. It is a kind of occult capacity, a faculty of inner
Respected Alok da, 1) I want to progress. With the work I am currently doing, I feel as though I am not learning anything new. Deep down, there is a longing for what the Mother has chosen for me to be revealed, and for my path of action to be connected with Sri Maa. (I know no work is small or bigger, just want to know this is for me.) 😊🙏🏻🌾
It is not easy. That is why at first one should practice the karmayoga, that means doing everything with a nishkama bhav, expecting nothing from
I am reading Letters on Yoga for 2 hours at night; initially, I was able to build a certain amount of concentration…. But for the last two days, I can’t. Many thoughts come and distract, most of the time, X’s memories, our intimate moments and many other thoughts come and drive me away. 📖😣🦋🌻[…]
These are obviously attacks by forces that want to obstruct the gyana yagya that you have begun. Don’t pay much attention to these distractions and
I had a dream… I don’t remember it fully; some people were hanging me and they shot me in the throat. And I died. I was full of fear in the night when I woke up. 😵🪦
May be a dream of past memory as a revolutionary who fought for India’s freedom. The coming up of such memories means it is time
Sir, can you tell us about your experience of living in Higher Mind? 🌌😊🙏🏻🌼
My experiences? They are too many. Some of them are shared in different interviews on auromaa. The real key and the central experience of this
What is Emotional Maturity (a very commonly used term), and how can we CONSCIOUSLY develop it? 😊🙏🏻🌼
Emotional maturity is very simply the ability to postpone one’s gratification. It means not to rush or speak and act under surge of emotions but
But what if their perceptions hampers/stalls our growth/progress? Or they are being negative to us. Wait it out for things to get better? Also, what happens to others, how they react/behave, is not on us, right – it’s their life and choice and actions that manifest… Similarly, what happens to us is on us, right… Our intentions, feelings, thoughts, situations. 🤔🌾🦋
Each one is responsible mainly for one’s own progress. What others do is their problem. We should mind only our own business.
I wanted to ask you about an experience. For some days, I feel like there is something violent or agitated and irritated inside me that wants to come out of me, but it is not able to; it’s like it is trying to come out but crashes into something and goes back. What is it supposed to mean? 😫💔🍂
That violent something trying to come out of you is anger. That which is holding it back is Mother’s Force that does not want you
Whilst playing hockey, I found myself so confused. There really was no reason for it. And it continued and I had a bad game day. Not knowing where to position myself, etc. It was bizarre. In hindsight, it felt like something that came over me to confuse. I called Mother, rejected it, and it feels lifted now. How can I protect myself against these attacks constantly? 🏑😕🦋🌾
Oh yes that is a very real experience. Something comes between the mind and the body or simply puts a subtle blinder on the mind.
Namaste Alok da. I was reading the ‘Bhawani Mandir’ under Vandemataram, where Sri Aurobindo said, “We will therefore build a temple to the white Bhawani, the mother of strength…” and said that the mandir would be built away from the modern cities, etc. Did he mean to build the physical mandir? And if so, was it built? Or is it more in the subtle space over India? Please could you shed some light? 🛕🗺️😊🙏🏻🌸
Here is what Sri Aurobindo himself said (in third person) when asked about the idea of Bhawani Mandir. …
Gurumata came in my dream and gave me soil that had golden particles in it. What does this indicate, Dada? And what does the blue bracelet symbolize, Dada? 💭📿🔷🌻
Soil with golden particles is clearly the touch of the Supramental substance that is now active in the earth atmosphere. The blue bracelet is Sri
Never react with your lower being, Don’t ever take lightly all the circumstances of each day, tiny little things of life. Enter within yourself; try to find the best in yourself with this you must react… – Dada, how to do this… like in the body, it is so conditioned since all these years? 😐🙏🏻🪷[…]
It takes time as nature tends to move in fixed groves of habit. But with persistence and perseverance, adding prayers for Her Grace to our
Sir, if thoughts are coming from different planes of consciousness and pushing us to act, then how can we think about a specific topic and think along a certain line deliberately? (Like reading a certain subject and deliberating upon it, planning about the future, etc). 🤔🪶🌸🦋
Our consciousness draws the corresponding vibrations from the world around based on its state. Generally it draws these vibrations through affinity and then they get
