AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

How could Sri Aurobindo never get angry or blame people despite difficult circumstances? What was His mental state that He could remain so dispassionate? How can one arrive at that state?🧘😊🌼🍃[…]

I try to remain unaffected around certain people and situations, but I think it does affect me. In this sense, even if I remain mentally calm and do not react, I feel some part of me shuts down emotionally.  Why do I feel sad and not liberated when I do not respond to emotionally triggering situations?  

This state is the result of Kalyan Sraddha, or the faith that all will be well regardless of the appearances. With absolute trust in the Divine, there comes absolute Peace. It is also the result of deep compassion and love that does not blame people but understands their real difficulties and has a benevolent attitude towards them. By growing in love towards Sri Aurobindo and The Mother, one begins to grow into their likeness, and full of Peace and Calm simply because of a progressive identification with their consciousness. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

I often experience intense physical purges—such as severe nausea and abdominal heat—after encountering certain people or environments, leading me to wonder if Sri Maa spoke about absorbing others’ karmic energies and how to safely regain vitality. 🛡️🌸[…]

Not sure what you mean by lower energies of people getting absorbed. The human system is not an entirely closed container. The body and mind of each person is constantly engaged in an energy interchange all the time. And since most human beings live in the vital, the transaction also takes place mostly at the vital level. Most …
