AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I was in a covered rooftop kind of place gap between the stairs and the door to the roof, but there was no door, only a big window above the staircase, and I was with someone. πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈπŸŒƒπŸ’€πŸΆ[…]

A big black dog came and it started barking at me. It starts to run at high speed all around and I hide behind the person, but then they are less scared but scared. It makes a weird face with all teeth out,Β like this shape again and again, with all teeth clenched and not coming closer. It takes a step and then returns, but it doesn’t stop barking.

Then another dog on the roof from the balcony peeks, looks at me. I pleaded to protect me and that dog barked at the fierce black dog, but he was not budging. While running, I ran into the wall and fell on my legs above the ground with my back. But I didn’t fall in the dream.

That dog is fuming and running around and it bites me while running, just a scratch on my leg, but it starts to hurt badly. And my friend says we’ll get it treated and said, ‘Let’s go. Just act normal, or the people at the gate will know.’ The person was talking about the hostel gate. And I woke up from pain in my leg where it bit on a point in mid leg.

The black dog is falsehood, while the dog that came to protect is faith. The rooftop that is locked is the mind. The dream indicates that as long as the mind doesn’t open to the Light and admit the workings of the Grace due to doubt, you will remain vulnerable to attacks from these forces that hurt and harm. What is needed is a leap of faith.Β 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

This is an alternate version which is clearly suspect. The original story is clearly symbolic of the triple forces of Nature, Sattwa, Rajas and Tamas, the three chariots of three asura brothers, notably of gold, silver and iron. The three modes of nature are never aligned. If and when aligned, the Asuras die and the Self is liberated. To do that …

The Mother and Sri Aurobindo laughed at the stupidity of religous conversions. They saw Religion as a spent force which is destined to be overpassed by the growing spiritual impulse in man. The upsurge of conversions, whatever its temporary success is destined to fail. The evolving human soul cannot be satisfied for long in any …
