AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Aren’t the conditions like inertia, inspiration also because of God. Why do we have to face helpless situations? Why does God make us suffer? What is God’s purpose behind this😳?

God does not work directly upon us. His action is veiled and modified by the Nature. This is so because we are not ready to bear the direct action of the Divine.  Hence we have to undergo a long journey through the darkness of ignorance. What we experience as suffering is a challenge thrown at us, a process through which we grow progressively strong and wise. The game of creation is not yet over and man is not the last summit of our evolutionary possibility nor is suffering the first and last experience of our journey. Suffering comes because of our misreading of God’s intention,  inability to bear the world contacts and wrong attitude towards self and life. God and His messengers come to show us the way out of the suffering and to live life freely and with delight.  But man trusts his mind and its conceptions and ideas about God rather than listen to the way that is shown,  he prefers the way of doubt rather than of faith and hence the suffering is prolonged needlessly. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

Alok Da, I have been having clear dreams for the last few days. My wife, who is pregnant, was feeding milk to the lion’s babies. I brought the milk from somewhere. And when I asked her to come closer, my wife refused and said not to come inside, the lion can attack. Sometimes in dreams, my breathing stops, but I feel alive. And in my entire life, I never gone through this kind of clear dream. 🤱🏼👼🏼🦁

The child in your wife’s womb seems to be a special soul. Is she on some path or has an Ista devata? The sense of stopping of breathing in dreams is not uncommon and there is nothing to worry

I’m under a lot of pressure to get married. I feel very, very, very lost. My parents have passed on a few contacts, and I have been talking to those guys. There is nothing wrong with these guys – in fact, they’re quite kind, mature, understanding and qualified, and one of them has a good depth of thought process and they are very interested in me. 🧑🏻‍🤝‍👩🏻🌹😫[…]

I think you are mixing several things, especially two very different things. The first and most important is what you should do with your life. In other words, what is your aim, the purpose of your life. There is a place for everyone, a place that we alone can occupy but to find that place we must find the purpose. In a general sense, the purpose of life is to grow and progress, to pursue excellence and…
