Sir, previously, I was in traditional yoga. I used to do Naam jap with mala ‘Hare Krishna Hare Rama’ Mantra. I used to follow one of the Maharaj ji, still I watch him sometimes through Reels, and I feel good. 😊🙏🏻🪷🌻[…]
God’s Name has indeed a great power. Any Name, any Form with which you associate the Divine is good but certain names such as of
Sir, can you please explain in detail the history of Delhi before and after the Mughals and before and after the Britishers, and the condition of today, and why that was so complicated? Sir the all is going on in Delhi. There might be an internal cause. What is it, and why is it? 🏦🌄🌾
In short, India had a long unbroken history of over 12000 years plus of being ruled by great Hindu Kings and Emperors who followed the
I listened to your most recent Savitri audio. You are on “towards the black void.” You mentioned the Vaitarani. Can you explain what that is? And how do we cross it in the context of the Mother’s Yoga? 🌼🌄✨
Vaitarani (the river that frees you from mortal remnants) known in Greek mythology as river Styx is a stream of energy that supposedly flows in
I now believe sexual lust cannot be resolved by personal will alone. Only the Mother’s Grace can address it. True Surrender of the whole being is the only way — easy to say, difficult to practice. 🫡🌹🦋✨[…]
Yes, it is only possible to master it through the intervention and constant action of the Grace supported by our persistent faith and will. …
I have been taking antipsychotics for the last 15.5 years (olanzapine 15 mg every night). The issue is – I feel a bad mood and irritation for 4-6 hours after getting up from sleep every day. Is it happening because of my psychosis condition, dear Alok da? 🔮😫😥🦋✨
Yes, it is due to an instability in nature. Psychosis itself is the result of this instability that arises because the consciousness has got centered
Reading all the writings, all the answers to my seekings, there remains a gap, a feeling of being unanswered. My inner call says that I can’t know anything fully while staying in the same dimension; there is a higher level or dimension than my present one, or maybe many of them, and only when I reach there, my quest will end. 🤔🌷🌄✨
Yes, of course, reading and writing prepare the ground, they are not a replacement or substitute for direct experience which comes through the meeting of
Jai Maa. Today I was reading the Two Natures chapter from Essays on the Gita and there Sri Aurobindo explains that the desire in consonance with dharma does not lead to any bondage, while there he also mentions that desire born of Rajogun leads to bondage and misery. 📖✒️😊🙏🏻🌻[…]
He has already answered this as you have correctly indicated, through the svabhava. Svabhava is the Divine Impulsion in creation that generates karma. It is
Sir, I am in my early 40s now. I have been the Divine Mother’s devotee since I was a girl of 9-10 years old. Now I feel how lucky I am to get Her image & to walk inside the Ashram, she still walks or drinks the water that she is still drinking/touching despite the pain I’m stuck with for a long time, sir. 🥲🌻💖✨[…]
Yes, I understand the sense of lost opportunities that come sometimes when we look back at life. It is inevitable because human beings live in
Right now, the world seems to be engaged in a terrible and depressing Yajna, with modernism and materialistic science as its priest, trying to conquer the world and death through Artificial Intelligence and genetically modifying babies and many more ignorant means and measures. 🌎🔥🔱🐦🔥[…]
Yes, your intuitive insight is quite correct about much of the present humanity. The Mother and Sri Aurobindo herself cautioned about this in several places.
Dear Alok da, in the following passage, “The boon that we have asked from the Supreme is the greatest that the Earth can ask from the Highest, the change that is most difficult to realise, the most exacting in its conditions. …” 😊🪷🌻✨[…]
Matter is the jada tattva of which all earthly life is based upon. Its nature is obscurity, inertia, darkness. It carries its own truth within
Alok da, how do I deal with this sense of fusion, that I feel within my being, as if I’m a bit torn apart, because I feel like I want to take part in all that is part of the bourgeois ideal, like a bit of marital sweetness, a bit of cultural activities, good money, societal prestige, etc. … 😣👥🫂🌄💖[…]
These longings are normal and natural at your age. There is nothing wrong in going through these aspects of life consciously, offering it all at
I primarily do Nama Japa and try to remember the Mother before doing any work, most of the time, except when reading Mother and Sri Aurobindo’s writings. 🧑🏻🤝👩🏻😐🌹✨[…]
Yes, that is what I meant about the complications that married life brings. However it is also a good preparation as it opens the heart’s
When I was dropping her off at school, she asked me: Mummy, hum knife se body ko katte hain to Aatma kyu nahi marti… I replied: Kyuki Gita me likha hain ki Aatma ajar hain, amar hain. Then she asked me: Aesa kya hain jo wo nahi mar sakti. She is not satisfied with my answer da. 👧🏼👩🏻👧🏻🪷🌻
Beautiful question. You can give her some examples of material things that cannot be killed or destroyed by knife, for example water, air, fire, space.
My brother recently had a daughter. This made me read and explore more about that subject. I understand that the soul chooses to take human birth to progress further, but does it also choose the family or parents through whom to come into this human vital world? 👧🏼🪷🌻✨
Choosing the parents happens when the psychic being is developed and able to chose the conditions of earthly life into details. Until then it is
Sri Aurobindo writes in “The web of yoga”, “We can pass into the Paratpara Brahman, but we can’t know the Paratpara Brahman.” Does it mean attaining Nirvanam, The Total Merger, that nothing individual is left? So knowing is not possible in Nirvanam. Am I right in my understanding? 💫💖🪷✨
Yes because knowing implies a competition between the knower and the known. We can therefore become Brahman not know IT as know an object. We
After much thought, I have decided I’m not suited to a 9-5 cubicle job, and I will not go for it. I’ll pursue a master’s degree in English and pursue a teaching career. Even if I get 30K a month, I’ll be happy, rather than doing something that doesn’t hold my interest, even for 2 lakhs. 👨🏼💼🏢🌻👨🏼🏫🍵
It is a very good thought and I am sure She will arrange all that you need. Pursue your deepest inner truth and have faith
The question today is regarding the Epstein files. As you well know, several “luminaries”, scientists, technocrats, as well as royals, all of whom the world idolizes madly, have all been implicated as perverts, as those who lack basic morals. 👥👥😟🥀[…]
A long time ago Plato made Socrates pose this classic question in his Euthyphro dilemma, in a slightly different way. Socrates simply asks: Why is
What are the signs to know that our nature has been purified or is being purified by the Divine Shakti? 😊🙏🏻🌼✨
Purification means bringing all the parts and all the movements completely under the Divine Influence and no other. Naturally it is a long process and
