AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How can one find the difference between Ego and self respect within one self🧐?

Self respect is a healthy form of ego needed to keep the true soul individuality while it is developing. It is like a toothless lion or a defanged snake which is certainly less dangerous to others. But if the defanged snake forgets to hiss or the toothless lion forgets to roar then it will become an easy prey to all kinds of forces in the world.

But once the psychic being is discovered and one is in contact with the Divine Presence then it is impossible to feel insulted. Then the respect is not based on the ego-self anymore and it is the Divine Presence that takes care of everything. Like the serpent around Shiva’s neck and the lion below Durga’s feet the ego becomes only an instrument of the Divine. One acts then no more because of personal hurts but to stay the march of adharma.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Repetitive situations come to teach us something about ourselves. But we often keep looking at the situation and end up blaming others thereby losing the moment and the opportunity to learn and grow. Instead we should step back and look carefully within us, become a student of ourself, see what triggers the reactions in us and why…

What happens if we continue to explore and keep the vital connection and think of that only as love? If we enter into a relationship and marriage for gains/conveniences. Will the relationship evolve, or will we plummet? Is it very important to seek character? 💗🌿[…]

All depends upon the foundation of the relationship. If the basis is vital it is destined to crashland today or tomorrow. If instead there is some high mental idealism or a deep psychic touch then it may pull through everything and even grow eventually after the vital storms.
