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

Asking the Divine for too many things seems selfish and at the same time if i make a promise to myself that i will not ask unnecessary things and face difficulties myself seems not the right thing to do.

Surely we can ask the Divine Mother for what we need. Only our relationship should not be confined to that. One should learn to give, to give out of joy, something of oneself, work, actions, money, something for Her Purpose in …

Pranam Sir. I want to ask about how to deal with negative anticipations, thoughts, and expectations in our daily life. One of my colleagues always targeting me and quarreling with me over each minor issue or mistake and even insults me in front of juniors. He is visually challenged. 🌿🕊️[…]

The best way is to completely ignore him, and if you cannot do so then remain inwardly totally indifferent to him. The best response to people who are hypercritical is complete indifference. The more you try to explain, the more they justify. The more you concede, the more they increase the criticism. But indifference completely flattens them…

What does the chant “OM SHANTI” truly signify—is peace merely the repetition of a sacred word, or a state to be deeply imbibed within the heart? We often define peace simply as the absence of external conflict, agitation, or turbulence, but this surface calmness is only temporary and amounts to nothing more than restraining turbulent emotions. What, then, constitutes real, unshakable inner peace, and how can one truly attain and sustain it? 🕉️🕊️

Peace is not an absence of disturbance. Even inertia is free from disturbance. Peace is something positive and powerful, a fundamental foundational status of the Divine, seemingly equal and non-reactive like Shiva bearing and upholding the dance of Kali upon his chest or the ocean holding its tremendous energy by its own power of self-limitation. maryada. It is a state of concentrated ingatheredness like the mountains or a vast Silence …
