AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

1. Mother shared one story of 4 beings who were the first beings in creation. We have story of Sanakadi rishi in our Indian scriptures who are also 4 in numbers. Is Mother is pointing to Sanakadi rishi?🧘👴✨🌳

The 4 beings of which the Mother speaks antedate Brahma ji. These are the four original emanations from the Supreme. In the Vedic tradition they would be Varun, Mitra, Agni, Soma with Indra as the overlord. There is also the four original emanations in the Vaishanava tradition namely Balarama, Krishna, Pradyumna, Aniruddha. In the Puranas these four original beings are Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Krishna. 

Sanakadik Rishi or Sanatkumar are the four (though some say 5 or 6) Brahma’s mind born children who remain forever young. These sages never fell. They rather turned away from the task and continue to guide man in going back to the Origin escaping from the Ignorance. The four beings of the Mother speaks are the four original powers or aspects of the One Supreme Sacchidananda. Sat or Truth, Chit or Consciousness, Tapas or Force, Ananda or Bliss. 

2. I don’t know is it a relevant question or not. But I want to know more about sanakadi rishis. What exactly their roles in creation and is there any relation to Mother’s yoga?

They are mind born, asexually so to say, not through the sexual process which came later. They did not enter the evolutionary cycle. Their role is to help those who want to come out of the evolutionary process. 

3. Is there any difference between Gyan or Jnana?

It is the same meaning. There is no equivalent letter for the ज्ञ alphabet in English. Jnana is academically closest. Gyana is easier and practical. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da
