AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Sir in one conversation you said that Sri Aurobindo Ashram is for higher evolution, What is that higher evolution referring to? Also what techniques or books or methods you use to heal yourself of ailments, depression and diseases? What should one inculcate or fix in daily routine as to live in tune with the universe?🧘🌳πŸͺ·β˜€οΈ

By higher evolution is meant to make the Divine the centre of one’s life instead of the ego, to base one’s life and activities around the Divine instead of personal gratification, to be moved by the Divine in all one does instead of be desires and, eventually through it all to undergo an inner and outer transformation. 

I do not think or worry about myself. To live for the Mother and Her Work, to serve Her, however imperfectly is a I try to do. 

One should try to be in tune with the Divine Will within oneself rather than the universe.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Acha toh yeh kaise practice kiya jaaye

First one should read and then see if one has the call for this Yoga. The practice is primarily inner and psychological but it should be done only if one feels the clear aspiration for this Yoga. Until then one should read and prepare oneself.

That is one way of looking at it. But a slightly negative and outer way of looking at it. There are plenty of things we do which do not involve success or failure. We do it because we find a natural joy in it. This spontaneous joy …

Is drinking small quantities of alcohol really that bad? Most people I know consume alcohol in some measure. I noticed that the ones who quit it completely face backlash from Society. For example, I heard business people say that you can’t trust a person who doesn’t drink. πŸ₯‚πŸ’¬πŸΈπŸŽΆ[…]

It is not a question of good or bad from a moral point of view. But drinking alcohol is certainly harmful for the physical, as well as psychological and I would even say spiritual health. The list of physical problems is too long and generally too well known to elucidate. …

Yesterday suddenly realised during my prayer with my mother that the seat of the Psychic Being is Highar Vital, in the Hridaya Chakra. Initially, I feel Peace, Bliss and Delight up to the Vishudhi Centre. Suddenly realised that my heart has received The Mother’s Peace and is spreading to all the centre of my all the inner parts and similar to the mother light also. Suddenly feel that the heart centre is doing everything. Alok da, is our Sadhana going in the right direction? Please guide me. πŸͺ·βœ¨πŸ’–πŸ•―️

Yes absolutely, the psychic being is behind the heart centre and when open and in the front then all becomes easy and natural.Β 
Your prayer is a beautiful psychic prayer and the yoga going in the right direction.
