AT THE FEET OF THE MOTHER
Ask Alok da

Could you please guide me on how I can shift this concentration to the Heart Centre?Β This is more on the personal front. In the readings of Sri Aurobindo thus far – and in your talks – there is a gentle nudge to gradually shift the Concentration to the Heart Centre in order to open the Psychic.Β πŸ’“πŸ§˜πŸŽ―[…]

I am finding it difficult to hold my Concentration in the Heart Center while Meditating. Concentration between the eyebrows seems to be more comfortable.Β 

It comes with practice. I myself encountered this difficulty initially since I used to practice, like most persons, concentration in the forehead. While shifting it above the head comes easier, shifting to the heart does not come naturally in most of us, presumably because of our civilisation itself being centered in the mind. But with a little bit of practice on Her Presence in the heart, the doors of bhakti suddenly or slowly swing open and then concentration in the heart becomes the most natural and normal. It is just a question of practice. 

Affectionately,

Alok Da

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 …
