Alok da, this might be a bit of a tough question for me to articulate, but I’ll try asking. Going through a bit of the Mother’s Works, I find a persistent theme in which She stresses the importance of Organizing One’s Mind, One’s Cognition, and Cerebral Capacity. And I’ve always been fascinated by how the mind of a good poet or a novelist works. ✒️🎶🤔🌻✨[…]
The Mother has already explained this in her essay on Education (CWM 12) where she speaks of five main things to develop by persistent practice.
Dear Sir, Tobacco, I know you have said in your talks that it must be avoided (my guess, something to do with lower vitals). I have been an on-and-off recurring Tobacco addict for about a decade (30 years old). In the past, for different reasons, I stopped, but again I relapsed; this cycle continued. There were struggles, guilt, shame, etc. But, last night something happened. 🚬😣🌃❤️🔥🌻 [….]
What happened is indeed the Divine Mother’s Grace for whom nothing is impossible. It is a clear sign that She is with you, watching over
How could Sri Aurobindo never get angry or blame people despite difficult circumstances? What was His mental state that He could remain so dispassionate? How can one arrive at that state?🧘😊🌼🍃[…]
This state is the result of Kalyan Sraddha or the faith that all will be well regardless of the appearances. With absolute trust in the
In one of your videos, you said, ‘If an irresistible call is there, then despite many defects and difficulties, a person will definitely reach his spiritual destiny.’ Sir, can a call for Yoga in difficult times be considered an act of Divine Grace?😇🙏🏻❤️🔥🕊️
Difficult times often hasten the soul’s awakening to the call. The call itself comes when the Soul is ready. But the shock of outer circumstances
The Children born to those who believe in the Yoga of Sri Maa and Sri Aurobindo and practice this Yoga are considered to be fortunate. I have heard that Children born after 1956 are born with a New Consciousness. 🙄🙏🏼🌷🍃[…]
There is no such absolute rule. It is a general statement that the Mother made that the children born after 1960 are different. In Her
In your recent talk on the Gita, you mentioned the Death of Aurangzeb. How did he die? What was his Psychological Condition? ⚰️🤨🌾🌾
His last few years were marked by an increasing sense of disappointment with himself bordering on to depression. He was tormented with suspicion, guilt and
Last night, I had a dream that I think is pointing towards a good Future for the Country. In the dream, I was about to enter the Ashram, but I got stopped by the people at the Gate. 🏛️😊🙏🏼🌻✨[…]

Dada, my child is Tapasya for me. How should I go about it? How can I know I am doing my Tapasya in her light? As children nowadays are quite advanced and bringing new possibilities. How to pace with them without losing harmony? 😊🙏🏼🌼❤️🔥[…]

It pains the heart deeply to wonder why some parts of the Being are still not dedicated to the Mother, and it is unbearable. But the various pulls will be there until all join and come together as a Single Flame. Could these also be Spiritual pulls, and if so, how do Spiritual pulls occur? 🙁❤️🔥🌻✨
No, it is not about spiritual pulls but the different parts with its own demands. It takes long, sometimes very long for these parts to
I had a dream where I was on the verge of committing suicide, but I was delighted and was imagining my future life. Then suddenly I got reminded of my parents, which gave me a shock of what I was doing, and I started weeping when I woke up, but I was still weeping then. Does it indicate my attempt to annul my ego, which I couldn’t do due to my attachments? 😶🌫️😣🌻🦋🍃
Suicide never annuls the ego. It only kills the body. The ego is not a physical, material principle but a subtle psychological one. The first
When I listen to your speeches or read Sri Aurobindo, I often get emotional and my eyes automatically well up. Why did this happen to me? 🥹🙏🏻🌷❤️🔥[…]
The tears are of course tears of bhakti, tears of longing and joy as the soul feels the touch of The Divine Mother and recognises
On weekdays, I also sometimes deliberately extend my work or make plans to meet a long-unseen friend. Deep down, I feel I am doing all of this mainly to stay away from Home and Family. 😣❤️🔥🌻🦋🍃[…]
The emotional being, unhappy with its present emotional environment and relationship, either turns towards other persons (the usual course) or else it turns towards some
How can I protect myself from someone’s blackmail? I mean, I know my father’s nature. Even after telling him everything and explaining things, he’ll use the same tactic: “I’ll kill myself if you don’t get married…” etc. Sometimes he even hurts himself. How can I stop all this? This isn’t right, is it? 😥🥀❤️🔥🍃
Nobody can stop anyone and nobody is responsible for anyone else. You are responsible only for your own life. And you should decide based on
Any trainer or exercise enthusiast nowadays says that carbohydrates need to be apportioned and meals should not be predominantly laden with carbohydrates. My friends have reduced a lot of Rice and Roti also. They have introduced Proteins like Soy, Mung, Besan and Eggs in their Diet. Some even go to the extent of taking extra Protein via Supplements. 🫛🫘🍛🫓🥚🤔🌾[…]
The scientific world measures and is obsessed with quantities. It calculates the amount of energy and the actual requirement. What it misses, since it cannot
I have been trying more and more to steal time for writing. I find out that it soothes me when I get in the zone and just let the words flow. I have also finally started therapy. I can only do bi-weekly sessions due to work, but it’s a start, which I hope will be helpful. ✒️❤️🔥😊🙏🏻🌼[…]

I often hear you mention ‘Equanimity’ in many of the talks. But I am still not able to have a clear picture of exactly what Equanimity means and how I should practice it in my day-to-day life. Please elaborate with examples, if you can. 🤔🪴😊🙏🏻🌷✨
Peace and Equanimity are the strong foundations of the Yoga that includes works and the world in its scheme of things. Even as such these
What is the Help? And how can we help? This is regarding Mother’s lines: “The world is preparing for a big change. Will you help?” (New Year Messages – 1970) 😊🙏🏻🌻🌄

Whenever I am doing any work or riding a bike or even in the busiest schedule, in some corner of my mind, I am remembering the Divine. Or I am getting thoughts of the Divine. But when I sit for Meditation that time I remember only useless things. And all the Thoughts jumble up in my mind. 🧘🏼♂️❤️🔥👷🏼♂️🌷✨[…]
Yes it is a common phenomenon in the beginning. It is easier to remember the Divine when the surface mind is engaged in some mechanical
