AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

If we have a soul in our body then how come ghosts πŸ‘» enter in the body and take possession of it?

Soul is there in everyone but it is veiled. To bring the soul in front, ordinarily man requires few births. It’s like a son of a wrestler is not born a wrestler, he has to prepare himself and the body. From birth his body is not ready with strength to fight, just like that the soul has to go through a preparation to come in the front.
Initially soul is asleep, it has no powers. So if we are engrossed in bad habit and bad company the soul becomes inert and so due to our bad habits and ill-wills, one opens the doors to the wrong forces and they enter into oneself and take possession of it.

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Yes, I agree that for the average human being, these outer frameworks and social institutions do serve a purpose of holding people together. Of course, as I mentioned, marriage or not, love and togetherness can be beautiful and ought to be so. But for that, man needs to evolve beyond the present frameworks, which operate as long as one accepts the limits of dos and don’ts. …
