AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sometimes curses become less in difficult times. What to do then?  Usually I am running haphazardly, trying all means or going back in shell and tired of even facing the difficulties. How to manage these times😥?

Stop trying and learn to relax, opening yourself quietly to the Divine Mother and relying upon Her Grace. Trying hard itself becomes a movement of the ego, especially when we are trying to get some result, be it even a spiritual result. If we seek some experiences, then it means that the aspiration is mixed with desire. Ambition and desire, even for spiritual things, creates restlessness and blocks the way. Instead, one must learn to surrender and practice inner quietude. Sometimes doing nothing is better than trying all kinds of different things, which are bound to only create more and more confusion. Aspire steadily but without haste or impatience. Leave everything in the Mother’s hands and be content to feel Her in the heart. If you get an opportunity, then find ways and means to serve Her, or else turn every day activity into an act of Her Service by remembering Her and offering it inwardly to Her.

Affectionately
