AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Alok da, now when I am making a decision or choosing an idea/something, try to follow The Mother’s guidance. Try not to be egoistic or hypocritical or under someone’s influence or judgmental. I know I am not one hundred per cent perfect, but I try to follow it and also surrender the action and result to The mother. Nowadays the by the grace of the mother, the result of the action (success or failure) does not affect me so much, and the Mother Sri Arobindo helps to move forward. There is lot of things going on inside and outside.  As you say kail doing the dancing. Today I need help on a specific condition. Because the action I am taking is not always as per the wife’s choice, it creates a conflicting/argumental situation. Is the feeling emerging from my ego (that she is not understanding my journey) or anything else? 🦁🥇⭐💫

Initially, I tried to convince her by explaining the reason, but now a days I am not doing so, because as my limited understanding, she has her own jurney though her experiences and The Mother is there with her to help. My only task is to look inside myself. Nowadays, a strong detachment feeling (physical or emotional) emerges.(My love for her is now different i am not able to explain it.) I have the feeling for the last 6 months. This feeling remains in the normal situation and increse little bit in the conflicting situation.

It is the soul within us that feel detached and turns away from when it sees the limitations and imperfections of the earthly life. It turns away in search of its meaning and purpose, in search of Truth. It is under the soul’s influence that the ego and desire-self start disengaging with life as it is today. It is also true that the nature of love changes either towards a friendship or a kind of compassion that looks at the human condition or very simply a dropping away of all the burden of expectations that one carries habitually in the standard format of relationship leading to quarrels, frustrations, disappointments, and all the many-hued drama of life that keeps the vital engaged. It is in fact a release and a step in the right direction. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

You wrote that the beings residing in Sri Krishna’s abode would wish to be here in order to enrich themselves. I would like to understand whether this means that the souls presently residing in Sri Krishna’s eternal abode would be able to come to the divine world that will manifest on Earth in the future. 🦚🌍

The beings in higher worlds as for example Goloka are not necessarily souls. The soul is a portion of the Divine that enters the earth and goes through the evolutionary process and return to the Divine, either to rest permanently in Him annulling itself completely or else to be part of the higher worlds as for example Devrishi …

I’m curious to know about your views on spirituality becoming so widespread in today’s world. We see spiritual figures having millions of followers on YouTube and other social media platforms. To me, it looks like a business and not spirituality. 🌱🧭[…]

Spiritual evolution has been going on since some time now. Its eventual purpose is to evolve humanity beyond the vital-mental man he now is to the spiritual and eventually the divine superhumanity of the future. Until now this spiritual evolution was confined to a few prominent personalities who tried to communicate it to the followers who almost invariably reduced it to a Religion with mental rules and regulations. Nevertheless mankind …

A strange dream just before I woke up this morning: I saw that I was consoling my father, hugging him about a situation where he was soon going to die, and at that time I felt a sensation of a very big snake passing by as if its body touched me; I also heard its hissing sound and saw its big tail end. 🐍💭[…]

This seems to be a premonitory dream and the snake seems to be ‘Kaalsarp’ (Time-snake) that chases us. We can either heed to its warning and evolve swiftly or else get paralysed with fear. So it seems that your father (and you too by default) has entered this phase of either an evolutionary leap or else a succumbing down to the evolutionary pressure and the challenges…
