AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

I am trying to be aware while falling asleep while chanting God’s name, is this good approach? Can we use sleep as a tool to realize individual soul. It is said that we often come in contact with individual soul when we go to sleep. So If one really wants to realize its own nature as individual soul very fast. What should one do? Is it possible to realize one self..🌌🧘‍♂️🌊🕯️

..as individual soul very quickly if one go through sincere spiritual sadhana. I mostly do naam jap as sadhana.

Spiritual disciplines advice us to be steady but not impatient. The vital tries to realise things with great impatience and hence it either stumbles or else fabricates experiences. The swiftest way is self-giving, giving oneself to the Divine Mother completely and unreservedly. Still it takes time because rest of our nature is not ready.

Trying to find the psychic being in sleep is not the right way. It is like trying to find the diamond not where it is naturally found but where it might be hidden. The Mother and Sri Aurobindo have written about finding the psychic being at great length and you will also find number of talks on this subject on auromaa. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da
