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.
Alok da, beginning with your training in psychology to walking in the path of The Mother today, what is your estimate of psycho spiritual condition of humans at large, I don’t even mean spiritual or yogic but atleast of what you’d consider a healthy mind and spirit. 🙏🏻🦋[…]
Let us leave the supramental, spiritual and psychic apart for a moment. Nor can we arrive at the real problem if we just think in
Pronaam. Did Sri Maa & Sri Aurobindo mention about Gyangunj anywhere? If so, then may we have a video on that topic, please? 🏔️📖
As far as I have understood, the idea of Gyangunj, a la Shangri La or a city of immortals somewhere in Tibet or the Himalayan
I feel now that I was never unhappy. Just disillusioned with the world around me after a certain point in life. Needed to find the truth. About people. Reality of time. Other things. Work. Things told/said to me vs my own experience. 🌱🌟 […]
The purpose is inbuilt within us as the tree is held back within the seed. So too the soul within is the seed within and
What is the true identity of “Mām” in Gita 10.3? If Krishna’s physical form is no longer physically accessible post-disappearance, does “Mām” point to the eternal Atman / Supreme Consciousness rather than the embodied Avatara? 📖🕉️
Sri Krishna himself answers this in the Gita. He is not there as the physical Krishna since He declares Krishna as one of his vibhutis,
“Descend to life with him thy heart desires. O Satyavan, O luminous Savitri, I sent you forth of old beneath the stars, A dual power of God in an ignorant world, ….( Sri Aurobindo, Savitri) 📖🙏🏻 […]
The question is legitimate and natural but fortunately we don’t need a personal Radha or Krishna to realise the Divine. They are everywhere and in
Would you please give me a prescription to become emotionally strong? I am more certain and surer than ever that I need only Mother, only. Thank you! 💗💪🙏🏻
Prescription for becoming emotionally strong
Rx
1. Love the Mother
2. Serve the Mother
3. Read books of Sri Aurobindo and The Mother
When I think of my Guru deeply or meditate on Him within my capacity, very soon, within 15 minutes, my heart flows with love and joy that I can’t contain within myself. So I stop my meditation because my emotions overflow. So I can’t do a deep good meditation. 💗🕊️ […]
The Guru has to be seen as the Divine Himself. Instead of focusing too much on the outer physical aspect one should see the Divine
Sir, please explain the following quote of the mother, “There are unique moments in life that pass like a dream. One must catch them on the wing, for they never return.” ✨🙏🏻
These are moments when a door suddenly opens within us, and we feel the touch or call from the Divine. There is a sudden downpour
I am 16 years old; I have just entered Class 12 and have been preparing for the JEE for the past year. Initially, not knowing my true purpose in life and equating material comfort with life’s goal, I began preparing for the JEE. 📚🙏🏻 […]
As you might be aware, Sri Aurobindo’s Teaching is not a philosophy but Yoga. This Yoga includes the entire field of life. Every field of
Is the source of Rta located in the “golden egg” (Hiranyagarbha) 🌟📖
The Source of Rta is in the dynamic aspect of Consciousness or Chit-tapas. Hiranyagarbha holds it within as well as is moved by it but
This truth about the asuras below, expressed by Sri Aurobindo on their seemingly ‘unjust’ and also the reason behind it, seems wholesome for me, for all the time I had been(or had been fed) with the rigid notion that asuras are bad and the gods are good by nature.⚖️📖 […]
`In Nature, since it started from division and egoism, the Titan had to come first; he is here in us as the elder god, the
Dear Alok Ji, can you please tell me how I can get rid of my anger at Sri Aurobindo and also how to regain trust in him? 🙏🏻💗
Trust is a very precious, priceless gift. Even among human beings it is special. But when it is towards the Divine then it should be
At one end, aspiration for the Divine and to unite with Him and to have a change of consciousness; to do The Mother’s work; at the other end, need for a proper awareness in the very ordinary and externalised human nature about the deep meaning and implication of what is happening in life and also what the Divine Destiny is. 🌱🙏🏻[…]
It is much better to catch the knot of life at the other end from where it all begins. The riddle of life cannot be
I am reading the Synthesis of Yoga and Sri Aurobindo is speaking about the union having a threefold character (pg. 131). I wanted to understand whether this is a skilful parallel to draw: a union by identity = Atman = Brahman 📖🌟🙏🏻 […]
Here is the passage from the Synthesis of Yoga to which you are referring.
‘That which is thus made manifest to our vision and experience,
I would like to share something interesting that I noticed. Recently, I completed reading the Bhagavad Gita. I noticed that the number of the last verse in the book, is the same as the Mother’s birth year. The number of the last verse where Sri Krishna speaks is Sri Aurobindo’s birth year. Could there be a significance to this? 📖✨
That is a very interesting observation. I don’t think anyone has mentioned it. I have myself not noticed this. But apart from congratulating you for
1. Is my reading approach fine? Would you rather I go through something else now rather than Savitri? 📚🙏🏻
Your reading approach is perfectly fine. Savitri and Prayers and Meditations are an indispensable must. Rest will depend upon taste and temperament.
The Synthesis
If surrender does not mean inaction. And true surrender to divine mother means acting according to the divine will. Then how can we discern and know the Divine will? Certainly as you said – The Divine Will is always for peace, harmony, joy. Are there other characteristics by which I can know the Divine will? 🙏🏻🕊️ […]
That is a most relevant question. The Mother herself has answered it. Here is her Guidance on the subject.
‘It is a great error
Yes, Alok da. I agree with you. Indian characters have set the bar so high that almost everything else feels low. I’m also looking forward to watching the Odyssey once it’s available on OTT. Thank you. 📖🏛️
Quite true.
Our ancestors were truly great in depth as well as height. They went to the extreme limits of everything for which they were
